I always have at my side a copy of SGB (supergrubdisk) and System Rescue
CD.

There is a little explanation about rescue system at:
8.7. Recovering a Broken System
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch08s07.html.en
Anyway, I agree with the wise advice can be read at the bottom of the
page:
"(...) Finally, note that repairing broken systems can be difficult, and
this manual does not attempt to go into all the things that might have
gone wrong or how to fix them. If you have problems, consult an expert."
When a system breaks, there can be many causes and many configurations to
take into account before start making things.
