Are you using Lilo rather than Grub?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LILO_(boot_loader)
If so, look at this: http://distro.ibiblio.org/vectorlinux/docs/vl50/manuals/vl5_installation_guide_en.html#postinstall
Scroll down to: 5. The Installation Process Step by Step
Look at: Repair lilo (Linux Loader). This is a handy utility in case you have an installed Vector Linux, but somehow you cannot boot it because of corrupted LILO.
This may be what you need to use.
Please note that accepted wisdom says do not use a CD-RW! Use either a CD-R or possibly a USB stick.
