[Scottish] Reinstalling Grub Loader

[Ian Drake, IT, CIR, SE Dunbartonshire]

boot from your install media select "emergency repair" mount your /, /boot
and /etc, run grub forcing it to use your mounted partitions for config and
such-like

I've only ever done this with lilo

HTH,

Ian

Hi everyone,
I had a problem with good ol windows which forced a reinstall, much fun.
Anyway, XP has overwritten my grub loader as usual fro Microsoft.  I didnt
make a backup disk, does anybody know how I can reinstall the grub loader?
Thanks
Allan
