Hi everyone,

In order to make a usb drive bootable with ubuntu-eee I used unetbootin, and it worked fine for that purpose.

The problem is that the first time I tried I actually selected one of my main hard drive (hda) partitions instead of the usb dongle. I then got a message indicating that syslinux.cfg was going to be overwritten (I'm not actually sure because I didn't pay enough attention, thinking that was normal.

After noticing my mistake I deleted all the files that had been copied.

Now, when I try booting, I get a "Could not find kernel image: linux" message from syslinux...

The only help I found on internet was about problems making a usb drive bootable, but what I want is just to repair my system boot (maybe grub ?) to get I running again.

Does anyone have an idea ?

Thanks.
