Quenten is using W2K. There you have to boot the W2K CD in repair
modus and run fixmbr!
A better way is to restore the mbr within debian. In /etc/boot there
is a boot.0300. This is the backup mbr written by lilo the first
time installing lilo in /dev/hda. Running lilo -u /dev/hda (in that
case) will restore the mbr of w2k. After that linux can only be
booted via fd or cd and w2k is using the the internal bootloader!
