and he's having a problem with his Gentoo Linux box. True, the problem exists directly with an alternate OS, but said problem originated when he accidentally clobbered something while installing Gentoo. Linux utilities for fixing (and making) low-level mistakes are usually better than their MS equivalents. This particular issue was an exception because nobody has bothered to write an open-source utility for writing Windows boot sectors, but it was still worth a shot. Also remember the relative level of knowledge between the average Linux *user* and the average Windows *user*. True, maybe the question was a little out of context, but not much. -- Batou: Hey, Major... You ever hear of "human rights"?
