Maybe i wasn't too clear. Sorry. I only need to make that disk bootable with grub. To do this, i can access r/w to the disk by usb. Done that, the disk is going to get back inside my laptop, finally bootable. Right now the bootloader is no longer on the disk, and so i cannot boot really anything. I can't use floppies nor cd to reinstall. Is there a way to do this? E.
