A bit offtopic, well, I don't know much about the NT loader, but it always surprised to me how fragile is the whole installation of a robust operating system like WinNT can be easily trashed in a few seconds, by just SYS:-ing whenever it loads from an existing MS-DOS (read Win9X/ME)...
Does anyone know if there is some recovery in this case? (and you don't have a backup of the bootsector, or a GHOST, or whatever).
Recovery console only, I think.
*to install it when Windows is still running properly: winnt32.exe /cmdcons
*to run it if not installed: boot from installation cdrom, and select repair.
only useful commands are FIXBOOT and FIXMBR.
not even an EDIT for changing boot.ini if partition layout changed, for example. To allow that, a registry change is needed :(
bootsector is very easy to destroy and very difficult to recreate..
