Boot Disc...help...
 

Hello all, well I have a problem. I just re-installed windows (not re-formated, just reinstalled) and now apparently it has overwritten Lilo or something so I cant choose to boot into Linux. Now I am pretty sure my partition with linux on it is still there (unless the windows 98SE setup deleted it...) I had made a boodisc when I first installed linux, but I apparently lost it or cant find it. So, how should I get back into Linux and re-setup Lilo? thanks for any help.



note: My linux distribution version is RedHat 7.1

Go here and use the info to get back into linux. Rerun /sbin/lilo as root and use the command mkbootdisk to make a new boot disk.

thats for the help, ill try it out

Well, I tried that, and doing all it said, so i started up linux rescue, went to the prompt. switched to bash, then tried to run /sbin/lilo. It said there was no sich file or directory. so I 'cd''d over to that directory and look at the files, and dheyres no lilo file in it. Any idea whats wrong? thanks

Nevermind, i got it worked out. Thanks a million for all the help!

You're welcome.
