I want to remove Bootany from by hard disk's boot sector.
How can I get this done?

Yes, yes, I know.  I should have taken a backup before I installed it,
but - I did not.  So.. is there some hidden trick to get the default
boot sector back and my hard disk up and alive again?

Status now; I cannot access the harddisk from DOS (entering 'C:'),
fdisk recognizes a non-Dos partitition, and I would rather not
issue the 'format' command yet.. in the hope that any net.people
have the knowledge to solve this problem..

Equipment: Phoenix BIOS, Seagate 5.25" 20 MB  + Seagate 3.5" 40 MB

Pre-thanks,
