Hi All,

I've lost the MBR on my HDD containing both RedHat 6.2 and Mandrake 7.1
linux.

Problem stems from fact that this HDD was my Primary Master IDE drive, and
my Secondary Master had Win98 and BeOS PE ( as zip folder in Windows).

Used Seagate's DiscWizard to try to restore MBR to Win HDD ( MBR corrupted
by bad install of BeOS's Bootman bootmgr). DiscWizard showed this HDD as C:
(which it was under Windows as Windows ignored the Linux HDD), but
apparently DiscWizard then went ahead and "restored" the MBR to the linux
HDD instead.

Have fixed the Windows HDD, but how do I restore the MBR/Lilo to my linux
drive when I can't access linux on it? Can I use linux fips or fdisk?

Thankfully I have 2 PCs so should be able to fix anything by swapping
drives around (as I did with Windows).

Any help or advice appreciated.

Bill
