Reconfigure the bootloader by using tools and documentation from the Linux distribution that
you use. For example, in Debian and Ubuntu, you may need to edit some commented lines in the
/boot/grub/menu.lst
file and then run the
update-grub
script; otherwise, the changes might not
take effect.

About Windows loaders
Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files ntldr, boot.ini,
ntdetect.com, ntbootdd.sys. boot.ini is a text file that contains the loader configuration. Example:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional"
/noexecute=optin /fastdetect
Windows Vista/2008
A part of the loader resides in the partition boot sector, the rest is in the files bootmgr, boot\bcd. At
starting Windows, boot\bcd is mounted to the registry key HKLM \BCD00000000.

Assembling MD devices for recovery (Linux)
In Linux, when performing recovery from a disk backup to an existing MD device (also called Linux
Software RAID), make sure that this
device is assembled
at the time of recovery.
If the device is not assembled, assemble it by using the
mdadm
utility. Here are two examples:
Example 1.
The following command assembles the device /dev/md0 combined of the volumes
/dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdc1:
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 -ayes /dev/sdb1 /sdc1
Example 2.
The following command assembles the device /dev/md0 combined of the disks /dev/sdb
and /dev/sdc:
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 -ayes /dev/sdb /dev/sdc
