You might want to boot with other means, such as floppy or cd. I don't have the details for what to do afterwards but basically you need to mount your Linux partitions, chroot to it and run lilo. If I am right then you can have the missing details either by searching net or that someone else will help you further. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
