Broken MBR



I needed more room so I reduced the size of an unused Windows/NTFS partition and increased the Linux ext3 partition using QParted. This broke the MBR so when I boot, I get a string of 9's and nothing else happens. How can I restore the MBR? I was using lilo if that makes a difference. I have a copy of the original sarge disk1 and a Knoppix 5.0 disk at home. Will either of these simplify the repair/
