This MB is legasy BIOS, no EFI.

I know that that BIOS was reset when I changed the battery and I changed the 
BIOS setting so I could boot from the hard drive which contain the boot partition.
It was when I restarted computer I got the problem. Since I could boot SRCD
and monted the filsystems I draw the conclution that the boot partition must
be corrupted.

The question is how can I repair the boot partition?
