I understand your panic...
Let's work on the xp part first...
Here is a site I found which offers some some ways to recover the xp boot.ini and/or repair.

Pay attention to the Warnings especially about backing up your data. (You did mention a usb mint, you could always run that and burn cd's with your data for safekeeping! AND as long as you have this, you can always reach your data, anyway...)
Hope this helps...

Great News!
Now to reinstall Mint?
Would you then edit your original subject line to include the word SOLVED
This way someone else investigating this same condition will find the answer!
