But u can reinstall the bootloader without going through the painful Full reinstall which takes too much time.You have to do that in rescue mode using commands.search the Net u will get it.

yes. we do not need to install fresh. when we give upgrade option it will load only boot loader. and as all the components are already intalled it will go to install them again.
