Essentially I guess the short question is, How do I make a non bootable drive bootable if the original MBR is no longer available?
First, ask the guys at your datacenter what's the benefit of RAID if you have to reinstall from scratch after a drive failure... Second, that's really bad luck that the one drive that failed out of the four was the one booting... Now, I never had to do any recovery yet but, while you are waiting for some experts answers, I think it would look something like: Boot in rescue mode. Make a backup if you do not have one already. chroot /mnt/sysimage/ # grub grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) grub> quit reboot Good luck! It is friday!
