If all that was destroyed on your Linux system was the kernel image, you could've gotten away without reinstalling Linux. The solution would be to use some sort of a Linux boot disk, mount the partition with /boot, copy over the kernel image, setup up the /vmlinuz symlink, chroot the mounted partition, and run LILO. Of course, if you are using Grub you can stop after setting up the symlink. As for Windows... well, that's a whole another issue :-}. -Andy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
