Dear DDs,


first of all for others who suffer from a similar problem.

1. If you have access to a different computer with a floppy drive or CD
burner, you can use grub-mkrescue or install grub-rescue-pc to get a
floppy or CD to boot your system.

2. If 1 is not applicable, I found the only solution is to find a
computer (or use qemu) where you have installed or can install GRUB
Legacy. Then you can use one of the howtos available on the Internet to
prepare a boot media (e. g. USB drive) to boot your system.


Status update follows in the next message.

Paul
