We at yellowTAB truely hope that you are not reading this part
of the UserManual, but if your Zeta installation (or your attempt
to install our boot menu) for one reason or another did go horribly
wrong, you may find that you no longer can boot into your Windows
partition.
Reading the installation documentation thoroughly before you started
installing Zeta should have helped you avoiding this problem. If
the installation for some other reason did not work, you should
at least be able to create a new master boot record by typing fdisk
/mbr in a DOS prompt. If you were only using Windows, this could
return things to the way they were before. Note that the command
will not restore a backup of the boot record -- it simply writes
the Microsoft boot record.
If you have a multi-OS machine with the BeOS bootman and you have
to reinstall a Windows product, it's gonna write it's own boot manager
to the MBR. You will then have to boot from the Zeta CD and hold
down the spacebar during boot. Select a different partition from
which to boot and point it at the Zeta partition on the hard drive.
Boot Zeta and run bootman from the Preferences.
