You could try re-installing just the boot menu with Penguinbait's PB or PBEASY command. See the try-here-first link in my dual-boot links below.

I can no longer boot from MMC2. The Nokia splash logo appears with "Booting from mmc2... " at the top, but the system just hangs. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
Here is a script I use for various tasks. It is a collection of many howtos here. (IMPORTANT: to clone mmc1 to mcc2 and vice versa you need to partition and format the SD before running the script otherwise the /opt will not be mounted and as a result you will run out of space! Do not use the script if you don't understand it!)
It has to run under root.
To clone SDs ( mmc2 to mmc1 or vice versa) you should run the script from flash.

Is it ext2?
if so
boot to flash, run as root from xterm
fsck -y /dev/mmcblk0p2 or (1p2) depending setup
See if that fixes it?

Therefore, it is transparent to us, users.
So the command is still valid to ext3.

Well I asked if it was ext2? Geraldko?? Read the first sentence of the quote, you quoted?
And yes it will still fsck a ext3 volume, but it is un-needed as ext3 will use the journal and straighten itself out on boot.
