So, in the process of trying to install Evil Entity Linux I have managed to
'break' the mbr. Now I do not get a choice as to what I'm booting off of
(hda2 or hda6), it just boots off of hda6 through an old version of grub. 

I was tinkering with linux rescue but didn't really see a good way to edit
the mbr... anyone have some advise other than re-installing? I'd really like
ot recover my RH7.2 partition without having to re-install it. I could care
less about the other OS (which is now mandrake 9... got that in while trying
to get  SOMETHING running on here ;P).
