I have no clue what is 'drak-wizard'. But even if your grub 
configuration file is wrong, you can still select which kernel, which 
initrd and which parameter to use on the fly: just press 'esc', then 'e' 
to edit pre-defined settings when you reach grub menu. As long as you 
didn't uninstalled the old kernels, you can still use them, whatever 
your grub configuration file is.

What doesn't work ? 'reinstalling bootloader' is not the solution if 
your grub configuration is wrong. You have to launch a console, and edit 
the file yourself.

You probably have a initrd issue:
