MBR and boot0
After a few attempts to get OSX to boot, I ran into problems with fdisk. I used my XP install disk to repair the MBR, then booted my iPC Live disk. When I ran fdisk, I got /usr/standalone/i386/boot0 not found error. Where can I get this?…

After a few attempts to get OSX to boot, I ran into problems with fdisk.
I used my XP install disk to repair the MBR, then booted my iPC Live disk.
When I ran fdisk, I got /usr/standalone/i386/boot0 not found error.
Where can I get this?
Can I extract it from the iPC disk? I can boot to OSX (add 5 minutes to normal boot) and Vista, so if somebody can point me to it...
1 thing: If I have to extract it in OSX, I will need a well documented walk thru.

Download a non-live cd and in the customize menu install one of the 2 bootloaders and nothing else, you should them be able to boot back into XP
or a better Idea would be to get Chameleon 2.0, which is a way faster way of getting the exact same thing
chameleon.osx 86.hu/articles/chameleon-20rc1-is-out
when you get the screen that Says <Ur hd here> with an Apple over it, press any key, and use the arrow keys to selelct which HD u want to boot from. this will allow you to boot back into XP
