I have a feeling that you are just in a typical case of needing to only
reinstall grub2 and let it find the Operating Systems itself without forcing it
into doing anything too complicated and unlikely.
Good luck and regards from

Hi Tom,
I see where you are coming from, but sadly - no.
The command he gave was a direct write to the hard drive first 512 bytes
which overwrote the MBR and partition table. There is no way that
anything on a live CD will be able to mount it, let alone read it, other
than maybe sophisticated disk recovery software. If he had a copy of the
original 512 bytes then it would be an easy job to replace them, but I
fear that the only copy he had is somewhere on the drive in question. :-(
On another point - your email client is breaking threading on the ML
such that every post you make creates a new thread, rather than
continuing it. I have seen this before in other lists with some specific
clients. Just thought you should know.
Barry.
