I figured it would happen eventually, and today I did so.
Went to write a disk image (~80MB image) to a micro-SD card, but I put in by mistake, /dev/sda instead of /dev/sdb.
It copied about 22MB before I recognized it and did an emergency power-off. Probably should have control-C'd it.
System: Compaq E500, P3 900MHz, 60GB had drive, five operating systems as such:
Primary: FAT32 Windows 98SE
Extended: Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 SP4, Windows XP, Ubuntu 9.10, and last ~512MB is swap space.
I've read this article on restoring GRUB, but...it won't work. I have Hiren's Ultimate Boot CD on hand, probably 2 year old version. I ran TestDisk 6.14 but it couldn't find any logical partitions.
Clues?
