Actually, the best way to do this in the future, is to make a seperate
boot partition for LM and then after that, you simply make that the
active partition with "fdisk" or any other partition manager after you
reinstall Windows. Unforetunely, I don't know how to re-establish the
partition the "usual way". I'm sure someone else will know the the answer. :)
