Hi!
I have Windows 7 Ultimate and Fedora core 13 linux in my single 500gb hdd in the laptop.
I had to format Windows 7 as there were some problems.
How do I get back the grub bootloader which was supplied with fc13? I tried restoring the system but that didn't work--i used the setup dvd and entered the following command :- * chroot /mnt/sysimage *
Any quick suggestions would be welcome!
 
May be this will help:

first boot to live cd, then in terminal, Use root account, on live cd no pass should be needed

Su

then run grub

Grub

In grub run the following

find /boot/grub/stage1

returns hd(0,5)

root (hd0,5) note the space between 'root' and '(hd0...'

Setup (hd0) use whatever number was given to you from the fist find command

Quit
