Saw this and thought I'd share, since I didn't know about it. I don't know if Puppy is that smart. All I ever did was remove the Puppy directory from C:\, then run repair from WinXP install CD, run fixmbr, then fixboot. However, I never ran it from a Dell WinXP CD. There's also a Grub or SuperGrub CD, also Ultimate Boot CD that might offer repairs. I know the Puppy Forum can be daunting...

Subject: [LINUX_Newbies] Remove Puppy
I have an older Dell with XP and Puppy Frugal with the Grub4DOS bootloader.
I plan to remove Puppy but don't know how to eliminate the bootloader so that XP will boot up properly.
Please post step-by-step instructions to fix the Windows MBR after I delete Puppy.
