Ah, easy... you'll be logged in as root, so chroot to your root partition. chroot /mnt/hda1 or 
whatever it is mounted as. Then, just re-install grub. I've never used grub, only lilo, so in that 
case you'd just type 'lilo' and then reboot. Man grub might come in handy, too. :)

Here's the deal.  Running a dual boot Win98 and Mandrake 7.2.

All's well, then I upgrade Windows to 98 SE.  Now it just boots directly to Windows, and I never 
see GRUB!

I can boot floppy or CDROM into my Mandrake install, select 'rescue', but don't know what to do 
from there.

Anyone know off hand?

Thanks -
Chris.
