Hi, I made a big mistake. I was trying to update my windows configuration to xp for my wife and it erased my grub and now I am not able use Linux and all my stuff is there, could someone tell me how to restore my old MBR or how to boot linux so I could configure and install grub again.
thanks
Jose Well there is more than one way to do this. You can use the rescue system or you can start the installation process again. Keep anwsering

Choose boot installed system and it should find your partitions and try and start your Linux up again. One you get back in, you need to do a grub-install as root. Like this "grub-install /dev/hda" Without the quotes and change the /hda to what is correct for your system. Hope that this helps. -- Marshall "Nothing is impossible, We just do not have all the anwsers to make the impossible, possible."
