Help with booting Aspire One

Hi all,

 

I had an Acer Aspire One with windows xp installed on it.

I made a new partition and installed xXx 10.5.6 on it. Everything went ok. no problems. However..

I couldn't boot into OSX from the HDD (blinking underscore). I was told to make the partition active. I did and there came the boot0 error.

I did fixmbr and fixboot from the xp setup-cd to go back to my windows xp os. Stupid as i am, i did this while partition 2 (mac osx) was active. so i screwed up my windows boot. The only way i can boot now, is into osx with the dvd. During the installation I also formatted XP.

 

As you can see, i have NO boatloader, NO xp and NO idea of wth i'm doing.

 

I have 3 partitions.

1)acer eRecovery blablabla

2)windows xp

3)OSX 10.5.6

 

when partition 1 is active i get the recovery assistant who installs XP on partition 2 (C:)

when partition 2 is active i get the "no operating system found" error

when partition 3 is active i get the flashing underscore and when osx-dvd is in the tray, it boots into OSX.

 

So can PLEASE someone help me installing some kind of bootloader which will dual boot xp and osx from HDD. :(
