Subject: How to rescue Linux after Windows reinstall
Problem:
on a PC with Linux and Windows, after Windows reinstall Linux cannot be booted
(GRUB menu does not appear).
Solution:
1. insert Fedora 8 DVD and reboot
2. choose Rescue Linux system
3. chroot /mnt/sysimage
4. grub-install hd0
After reboot, GRUB menu appears again.
It took me a looong time to find out this simple solution.
Hope this post helps.
