please check out the "boot loader" section of this:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Fedora_Core_4_on_a_ThinkPad_X41_Tablet

if you can manage to boot into Linux (e.g. by using rescue mode), the
bootsect.lin can also be created like this:
# dd if=/dev/hdX of=/mnt/win/bootsect.lin bs=512 count=1
replace /dev/hdX with the device file name of your Linux boot
partition, /mnt/win is where the Windows C: drive is mounted.
