Hello,
Previous (triple boot) working system:
-----------------------
Drive0:
Win2k(C | WinXP(D | Data(E <- all primary partitions ( I know, I
know, never again)
Drive1
Junk1(I | SuSE Swap(unkwn) | SuSe Boot(unkwn) | Junk2(J |
Junk3(K
with Junk1 primary
while in Win2k I formatted D:, planning to reinstall WinXP as before.
However,
when I booted into the WinXP setup disk the drive letters changed, but I
went
through with the reinstall anyway. When done, I had this:
broken system
------------
Drive0:
Win2k(G | WinXP(C | Data(F
C: is now the System partition
Drive1
same as before, except Linux SuSE no longer is found.
Now the Win2k can't boot, even from the setup CD. The Grub boot loader is
broken too. Booting from the hard disk goes straight into WinXP, unlike
before where I had a triple boot option.
When I boot into WinXP and look over the D: root, the Win2k partition seems
unchanged! How can I restore the old Win2k partition as C and boot it?
