want to Uninstall lnx4win help!!!!!
i installed lnx4win from mandrake 8.1 and now i want to uninstall it but i dont see where it says anything about Uninstallation so some body please help me!
|
See if there is a file named uninstall.bat located in the lnx4win folder. If it's there, run it to uninstall lnx4win.

yeah i read that in a previous post but there is no unistall.bat in the folder. i download the uninstall.bat file and put in the folder and ran it but it didnt do anything? So how else can i take it out?
|
Could you post a copy of the uninstall.bat file? Also, what happens when you run it? Do you get any messages? Did you check to see if any of the files were removed?
|
im not exactly sure of the address i got it from. as far as i can tell it didnt remove anything.

When I left lnx4win I just nix'd the whole directory since that's all it was, did a sys c: from the windows bootdisk to freshen config.sys and autoexec. You can do an fdisk /mbr at that time too if you want also if you've changed bootloaders like lilo instead of loadlin only. sys doesn't always work, but it's worth a try if you can't get it off through the conventional uninstallers.

This is a copy I found:
cls @echo off c: cd \windows\temp if exist lnxflag goto del1: echo. echo Lnx4Win Uninstallation... echo This program will remove all Lnx4Win files from the hard disk ! echo. echo. echo Press a key to continue... echo Press CTRL+C to stop the Program ! echo. pause > nul cd \lnx4win copy uninstall.bat \windows\temp\lnxflag copy uninstall.bat \windows\temp\lnxuninst.bat copy rm.exe \windows\temp cd \windows\temp call lnxuninst.bat :del1 del lnxflag rm -rf \lnx4win rm -rf \mandrake cd \ if exist config.mdk goto del2: goto fin :del2 del config.sys ren config.mdk config.sys :fin exit All it does is delete the following directories: c:\lnx4win c:\mandrake and then it deletes the c:\config.sys file, renames the c:\config.mdk file to c:\config.sys . You can do this yourself from an msdos prompt or windows explorer. Just make sure before you delete the c:\config.sys file that the c:\config.mdk exists. Otherwise, you won't have any c:\config.sys file. |
