Does anyone know a fix for:

"The backup GPT table is corrupt, but the primary appears OK, so that will be used."

I really need this fixed. It came about when I was trying to dual boot Windows 8 with Chrunchbang (a Debian based distro), it was all fine, until I accidently wiped my original Windows 8 partion when I installed the GRUB...

Anyways, anyone know a fix for it?

Thanks in advance.

I have tried some commands to fix it.
Apparently I don't have gdisk on my machine at the moment. And I haven't had a good enough wireless connection the past week to install it.

But thanks still, I will be attempting to use those when I have a better connection.

Yes it was completely wiped, I did try windows repair and it did fail.
I went back and used gdisk to rewrite the GPT table and that fixed it but wiped all my data.

gdisk /dev/SDA w for anyone who wants to know.
Verify it first using the v command.

Yeah I got some work to do to get what I need back, but I'm very glad its fixed.
