Hi, > Here's a list of the files in /boot/ [snip] > boot.0301 [snip]
Here is what the lilo manual says: ------------------- LILO automatically makes backup copies when it overwrites boot sectors. They are named /boot/boot.<nnnn>, with <nnnn> corresponding to the device number, e.g. 0300 is /dev/hda, 0800 is /dev/sda, etc. Those backups can be used to restore the old MBR if no easier method is available. The commands are dd if=/boot/boot.0300 of=/dev/hda bs=446 count=1 or dd if=/boot/boot.0800 of=/dev/sda bs=446 count=1 respectively. ------------------ You appear to have a /boot/boot.0301 file. Have you tried: dd if=/boot/boot.0301 of=/dev/hda bs=446 count This has worked for me in the past. -Ossama -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
