[LUGSB] How to get rid of Linux GASP!

[Vinay Pai]

Well you cant "delete" the bootloader, unless you don't want your
computer to be able to boot.  You need to use the facility in whatever
other OS you're trying to boot to write its MBR.  I know there was a way
to do it in Win2k by booting into recovery mode from the CD and going to
the console... don't remember details though.
