Have a look at SYSINSTX.COM on the emergency boot disks you safely and
methodically created as per the OS/2 manual when you were through
installing the product ;-))))

Also located at x:\os2\install\bootdisk\sysinstx.com

Alternatively if you like doing things the guru-looking-way (if doing this
to impress someone of the opposite gender, I suggest you practise 'before
the show'), boot off a DOS floppy on a good machine, get the boot sector
off a working HPFS partition using Nortons or similar, and (after booting
off a floppy) graft it into your mangled system.
