Hey all,
here is my problem: I have installed Windope XP.
I had a 10G partition on my hd, and I installed windows on it. The problem is that I don't have any more Lilo booting at the begging, My system launches immediately Windows and I cannot choose if I want to run Windows or Linux.
This were my partitions on my hd:
hda1 : free space (where I installed Windows)
hda5 : Gentoo (reiserfs)
hda6 : free space (ext3)
hda7 : Swap
I'd like to make Lilo boot again, I'm writing this message from my Windows... I'm so sad I made this huge mistake. Can someone help me please, I had some really important documentation on my Gentoo partition.
My lilo was installed on my MBR.
Do you think if I boot a live cd of any distro, the I mount my gentoo partition, copy the /etc/lilo.conf then put it on a floppy I can make it again available? What could be the right manipulation to do?
I have just read this tutorial too late :

Can someone help me?
I quick answer would be REALLY appreciated, I prefer 10000000 times LINUX!
Thanks everyone,
