I have computer that was configured to dual boot Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Windows 8.

When the computer was rebooted afte shut down the computer fails with following errors

Checking media = Failed

No Bootable device - Please restart

Before shuting down by mistake I wrote to (dd) /dev/sda thinking it was the SD card drive.

Is there anything that I can do to recovery with out reinstalling everything all over again.

The data was backuped up a few weeks ago.

Any thoughts.

just boot from the livecd and run grub-update on /dev/sda if that's all that's wrong, other wise there isn't much you can do.
