friend here in exmouth his windows 8 acer x600 desktop machine has decided
to nuke the hard drive somehow it booting up with No Operating System found
probably lost its MBR correct?

drive but linux will not see it when i boot a live cd (linux mint 15)

I have switched off all the efi stuff in the bios found that info the web
but can't seem to find out how to get it too see the hard drive in linux
live mode ? tried ubuntu 13.04 and linux mint 15 , will try fedreo seems
that the one people recommended with efi setup.
