This is a pity, but oh well :-/

You will have to boot off a DOS boot disk that has sys.com on it.  Then
you can type "sys c:" - that will replace the boot sector on drive C,
causing DOS to boot properly again.

Oh yeah.  And if you want to *completely* remove all traces, after
removing the OS/2 subdirectories, etc., use
"attrib -s -h -r ea?data.?sf" and then delete that file, and do similar
things with "wp?root.?sf".
