Restoring LILO
 

I had my system set up with a dual-boot between WinXP and SuSE 9.2 with LILO as the boot loader. After some problems with windows I re-installed it and now it overwrote my MBR. My system just boots into windows without going to the LILO boot menu. How can I get LILO back?

Suse should have a repair option on it's install cd but if it doesn't you can just do it with a live cd. Boot the live cd, mount the harddrive, chroot into the mounted parition and run lilo.

How and where do I mount my linux partition to? I understand the steps that you listed but can you provide the commands I need to issue?

su -
mount -o dev /dev/hd(x) /mnt/hd
chroot /mnt/hd
lilo -v
