dan dgn guna pendrive tu..semacam ko bwk ke mana2 sistem operasi ko..ko boleh guna tu dimana2 komputer..kerana puppylinux guna RAM je....dan dia tidak akan rosakkan mana2 komputer yg ko guna tu..

-yg problem ko ni..aku rasa pasal ko tak buat partition khas untuk linux..

=How to Fix "BOOTMGR is missing"
So you've got a shiny new Vista install on your desktop, and you're happily installing all of your favorite programs.  One of them requires a reboot, and begrudgingly you comply.  On startup you get an error message reading "BOOTMGR is missing.  Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart."  That could be a problem.

As near as I've been able to figure out, Vista gets confused when installed while you have a SATA drive and an IDE drive plugged in and powered on.  In my case, I had one of each, and was installing to the SATA drive.  The IDE drive was already formatted as NTFS (not sure whether that matters, but it might).  So when I installed Vista, it put the Windows files on the SATA drive, but somehow decided to put the boot files on the IDE drive.  It worked like this for a couple of reboots, but then stopped working, giving me the mentioned error.

Vista repair to the rescue, right?  Reportedly it works quite well for some things, but not this case I guess.  I tried the auto repair function that specifically looks for startup problems, but it couldn't find any.  There is a command line option though, so in I dove...

The idea is that some files are placed on the wrong harddrive and they need to be on the other one.  It just so happened that the command line I got though the repair interface gave me C:\ as the drive that had the boot files (incorrectly), and the D:\ as the main (SATA) drive that I wanted the files on.  To find out which is which in your case, just use the following commands (all quotes in this post are NOT part of the command, and the commands are NOT case sensitive):

"c:" to switch to the C drive.
"dir /a" to view all the files.  The "/a" switch is to show the hidden ones (the files you are looking for, listed below, are hidden).
"d:" to switch to the D drive.
"dir /a" to view all the files there.
Basically what you are looking for is the drive that has a BOOT folder with files in it, and also a file named BOOTMGR (not in the BOOT folder).  And you want to identify the drive that has the "WINDOWS" folder in it, as that is where you are going to copy those files.

As far as copying the files, just use the following commands:

"c:" to switch to the C drive, or wherever you determined the boot files to be.
"xcopy /h bootmgr d:" to copy the BOOTMGR file to the D drive, or whichever drive you need to copy them too.  The "/h" switch makes sure that it sees hidden files.
"robocopy c:\boot d:\boot /mir" to copy the entire BOOT folder from the C drive to the D drive, again switching the drive letters as you deem necessary.  The "/mir" switch mirrors the entire directory structure, and is necessary because the BOOT folder contains some other folders with files.

Download fixmbr - MbrFix tool to repair master boot record
MbrFix is same as fixmbr or fdisk /mbr, but works in any Windows including Windows NT, XP, 2000, 2k.

Recommended use of mbrfix to run Windows again
1. Create any bootable floppy disk/diskette A: (even with older Windows systems)
2. Run MbrFix to see the current list of partitions: mbrfix /drive 0 listpartitions
3. Run MbrFix in the following way: mbrfix /drive 0 fixmbr
4. If you have more than 1 physicial hard disk (hard drive), you have to use proper number for your disk. E.g. change 0 to sdifferent number (1, 2 etc.)

Try the repair option of the Windows XP OS. You do this by booting from the CD. Wait till you get the welcome screen and then press R. Then type in CHKDSK /P and then CHKDSK /F. Then, after this is done, type in FIXBOOT and after that is complete, type in EXIT. This could fix yoru problem.

Here's what you do:

1. Boot from Vista DVD
2. Start a new install on some partition (dont need to format). Don't do it on your XP partition.
3. When it restarts, you'll still get the error message, BUT it already copied the boot files to the partition.
4. Restart and boot from Vista DVD again.
5. This time, click "Repair start up"
6. Select the installation, the password is blank so press Next.
7. Then select "Command Prompt."

Alright, here's the tricky part... we're going to copy the boot files from the X:\ drive to your XP partition (in my case, D:\)

So, I had some trouble with this... here's what you do:

Type in "d:\" (or your partition letter)
Then do:

mkdir boot

Type dir and make sure it shows up as a directory, it should say:

boot

Now, from now on, ALWAYS type in "dir" whenever you do a "mkdir" command to MAKE SURE IT CREATES IT. I had some problems where it didn't always create it, or do it right.

Next, we're going to make the folder structure, type the following (while making sure to check the screen when typing "dir"; replace "d:" with your XP partition drive letter):

d:
cd boot
mkdir EFI
dir
cd EFI
mkdir Microsoft
dir
cd Microsoft
mkdir Boot
dir
cd Boot
mkdir en-US
dir
d:
cd boot
mkdir en-US
dir
mkdir Fonts
dir

Alright, the folder structure is ready. Now to copy the files.

x:
copy bootmgr d:\
cd boot
copy *.* d:\boot
cd efi
cd microsoft
cd boot
copy *.* d:\boot\efi\microsoft\boot
cd en-US
copy *.* d:\boot\efi\microsoft\boot\en-US
x:
cd boot
cd en-US
copy *.* d:\boot\en-US
cd..
cd Fonts
copy *.* d:\boot\fonts
exit

Then click Restart or press restart on your case.

If you get the message "cannot find file specified" then it means your folder structure is messed up. It needs to have the folder created to copy the files. Check and make sure your folder structure looks like:

D:\boot
D:\boot\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\en-US
D:\boot\en-US
D:\boot\Fonts
