Hi folks,

I've just boobed big time

Instead of typing

dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=1024

I typed

dd if=boot.img of=/dev/hda bs=1024

Now I recon I've stuffed the MBR including the partition table, and the 1st 
1023 blocks of /boot.

While I've still got by PC booted everything's working fine, and I have access 
to the system.  However, it's obvious that I can't reboot.

Can anyone suggest a way of restoring the MBR and partition table and how I 
can rebuild the /boot partition.
