      Try running FDISK / MBR from a startdiskette.

      Just a little more info, what the 10101010 is, is the boot loader for Linux messing up. Depending on how you want to go about things, fdisk /mbr should work as the last person said, and will let you get back into NT – you can also try re-installing RedHat, but if you do so make sure the partition you’re putting it on is within about the first 2Gig of the hard drive – the version of Lilo that comes with RH6.1 still has that limitation.
