Ack, trying again, this message was returned to me because the subject "Get grub mbr back after Windows XP Install" was interpreted as a sympa request.
I installed the new XP64 beta on my eMachines AMD64 laptop. It reclaimed the MBR from grub. How can I get the grub MBR back on without doing a complete reinstall? Can I start up the install CD, drop to a command prompt, and run grub-install? The Mandrake version that has the grub I need is 32-bit Mandrake 9.2. Thanks. BTW, this laptop has no floppy drive, so I can't boot from that. I have another computer, so I could burn a bootable CD. I think XP takes a backup of the boot sector; perhaps I could just use dd from a command line from the 9.2 install CD? -- Guy Rouillier
