fdisk/mbr will delete the mbr but you will have to run an reload/upgrade of
NT to rewrite the record again then use your Linux bootdisk and reconfigure

"Weave a circle round him thrice,
  And close your eyes with holy dread,
  For he on honeydew hath fed,
  And drunk the milk of paradise."  (The linux user)
