[opensuse] RE: Damaged Master Boot Record



I have 3 HDD in my PC. No matter which Disk I partition
to be the boot drive via the GUI Partitioner, I cannot
boot the PC from HDD. I am sure the MBR is corrupted -
I am using GRUB with NO NTFS Partitions. I cannot find
many clear directions on how to re-write the MBR. Can
some one please help me with a few clear directions on
how to correct this - Perhaps after replying to me you
might like to consider writing a SDB page on this as
there is little info on this
Thanks Scott
