Any ideas how I can get my cooker install back up and running without
doing a reinstall of it as well?
Boot to OpenFirmware:
1) switch on, your mac, while pressing Command Option O F.
2) Then enter the magic boot line (which depends on your linux bootstrap
partition):

setenv hd:[your bootstrap part nb],\\:tbxi

And then reboot (can't remember the OF command, something like boot I
suppose).
I thought that maybe it would have wiped out the bootstrap partition, which I was trying to regenerate. I guess it probably wouldn't have done that.

Duh... dunno why I didn't think of doing this earlier. Ok, I'll give it a shot. Thanks for putting up with my denseness. =)
