subject: Boot sector fault

Anyone know how to repair a dead boot sector on a HPFS partition ? I've had
a multi-io card die and in the process of trying to get it to work my HDD
has become unable to boot.

Is there an OS/2 command like 'sys' or similar ? It boots off floppy, but
goes straight to the prompt. CHKDSK doesn't help.
