I have thrice now wiped the entire disk and re-installed, including physically zero-ing out the first 512 bytes (which I understand to be the MBR) so I would've expected the re-installs to deal with that.
But happy to give this a go tonight when I get home. ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: "Kyle" <[email protected]> Cc: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, 9 June, 2011 9:22:44 Subject: Re: [SLUG] PC won't recognise boot disk Sounds like the MBR is corrupt. From your live CD use the install-mbr program to reinstate it. You'll *probably* need to say, install-mbr /dev/sda if there's only one hard disc present.
