Good day Paolo,

In regards to your question concerning removing EXTLINUX:

- What sort of boot-sector used to boot from that partition before you
installed EXTLINUX?
- Just for clarity: You do mean that the partition's boot sector (first
sector or the partition) was overwritten only, and you do not have to
change your MBR also, correct?
- If you didn't have any boot code (like GRUB) on the partition before,
that would suggest that your active partition is set incorrectly, or
that the MBR is booting that partition for some other reason
- If you did boot from that partition previously, simply re-install that
previous boot-loader using its documented means

Good luck!
