Wrote over boot disc by accident


Recommended Posts

Hi, I installed fedora on another computer about 1 month ago now, and I didn't want it to use grub so I left that out and instead made a boot disc, but by accident ( :whistle: ) I wrote over it and now I can't load linux.

Is there any where that i can download boot discs or something, or sort it out as I don't really fancy installing fedora again.

PS. Its on dual boot with Windows 2000 and I can load into Windows 2000.

Thanks.

A couple of things come to mind:

Boot off the Linux CD and use whatever recovery mode they have available.

Make a new boot floppy with the rawwrite utility on the CD.

Add your Linux boot to the Windows C:\boot.ini file.
