Check in the GRUB manual under something like "install GRUB natively"; they've got step-by-step instructions. You can set up a new GRUB boot sector with the “setup” command.

Worked quite nicely. I didn't know about Captive NTFS; interesting. Yes, I figured out at some point that Cygwin would be a good way to answer that question, but I didn't get as far as actually installing it, since it wouldn't have helped with much else in that process.

Actually, you can write to NTFS all right from Knoppix by using the Captive NTFS drivers (http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/). The install program locates the actual Windows NTFS drivers on your disk (they are licensed to run on your system, after all) and then runs them under Linux in a sandbox. I've done this to reset the local administrator password on a Windows box. The way to compare files on Windows, of course, is to install Cygwin first. What ISO burner did you wind up using?
