That was a typical newbie error: by following te distribution's (in

the MBR straight on the first, primary disk/partition. Now, the - still
existing - DOS partition located there is not bootable any more.

How to repair that without a full re-install (of both the DOS and the
Linux partitions) ?

It can be done with a program called MBRWORK. Take a look here:

And good luck
