if you didnt format the debian partition, just use the install dvd and reinstall the boot loader only, you just go through the whole process, but dont re-install the OS, or format the disks. the boot loader is usually amongst the last steps just after installing packages.

Hi,
Recently I formatted my machine which was running windows and Debian. I reinstalled but now I can't access the Debian. Is there a way I can restore? Skunks for help.
Regards,
Ambrose Kimaiyo
