hi everyone, i installed debian/winXP on a machine and later wanted to remove debian from it. i removed the partition but lilo was still there. now 'smart me' decided to remove lilo *the geek way* .. by using dd to copy boot record from /dev/hda1 (WinXP) to /dev/hda (first sector of drive ??) and somehow decided on giving this command ... dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1 .. i know this is wrong because when i rebooted i could'nt load windows or lilo either... and then when i used to debian boot CD ... and did a fdisk /dev/hda -> pto list the partitions ... it gave me all crap... i guess i just fried up the partition table on the machine ...is there any way to recover the data from the machine or i'll have to reformat and repartition the machine and loose all my MP3 collection :( :(please reply soon .. am desperately in need of a solution and ... no i don't have any fdisk /* partition table info for my machine prior to frying it up :( :( cheers sharninder
