[gentoo-user] I killed my xp boot sector with grub
Hi there, I just replaced a win 98 with a win xp. xp overwrote the mbr, so i had grub reinstall it. The problem is, that I used setup (hd0,0) instead of setup (hd0), write it in the boot partition instead of the mbr. linux is running on a hdb, so there is no effect. Is there a way to restore the winXP boot sector without reinstalling xp? Thanks, Thomas pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
