How to fix broken Master Boot Record

If you accidentally used BERRY Installer in the wrong way
and your computer doesn't boot your former operating system,
you may try

lilo -M /dev/hda ext -S /dev/null (Linux)

This will overwrite master boot record of hda harddisk (primary master)
and will setup your computer to start operating system from the partition
with "boot" flag. You can use "mbr" argument instead of "ext" if you're
sure that the operating system is on one of the first 4 partitions.

If you don't know how to use Linux commands at all, or if you just
need to fix MBR for Windows operating system, boot Windows install
CD and run Recovery console instead of the installation. It's usually
started by pressing R in Windows XP install. When you have the console,
type "fixmbr" and confirm by Enter.

fixboot (Windows 2000/XP, use recovery console)
fixmbr

fdisk /mbr (Windows 98/Me, use boot disc)
