If I seem a bit happy today, here is why: two days ago we started and finshed our ‘Repairing the MBR without Formatting’ Whitepaper. Basically it tells you the only way (never before discovered) to repair a FUBAR’d MBR without losing any data.
From there we went on to discovering our next project: a bootable Grub install disk/wizard. It will:
- Make fixing the MBR a lot easier (removes all Linux related steps);
- Make reinstalling Grub for *nix users a simple thing… No more rescue mode
Currently I’m working on this project with some very kind members from another forum, and the research half of R&D is going very smooth. I am personally very pleased with out progress, and we should have a beta out within a fortnight!
So, did this every work out? I’d be interested if it did.
