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?

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.

Thanks in advance.

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

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

Computer: Gateway 838GM | 9.5.0 Vodoo Kernel |2.0 RC4 Chameleon Bootloader | Processor:Intel Pentium 4 630 / 3 GHz | RAM: 512MB | OS: Windows 7 32BIT, OSx86 iPC 10.5.6 | Mainboard Chipset: Intel 915G Express | Graphics Card:Integrated Intel GMA 900 | Video Memory: Dynamic Video Memory Technology 3.0 | Audio:ALC 860 |Card Reader:8 in 1 Integrated| Hard Drives:1x 200GB SATA(Win 7), 1x 320GB SATA(OS X) Both Internal
