Try "fdisk /mbr" from a DOS/Win9x boot floppy (it'll have to have fdisk
on it, of course). This will wipe the master boot record (leaving the
rest of the disk/partitions intact). Then, if you've
on my dual boot machine, a windows reinstall always overwrites the mbr to
boot straight into windows. I always keep boot floppy around so i can
boot and re-lilo the thing. If you are having problems getting lilo to
load windows, the line i have in my lilo.conf to do this is
other=/dev/hda1

Has anyone found Lilo not to be written over while installing Win98 on

Why is Windows going back on my machine. The Kids Games that caused it

I am still booting Storm / Debian potato and Windows will not reload.
Even after formating C: (hda1).

I resolved the problem of booting Linux by making my win98 drive hda again
and reinstalled Debian on hdb (at the moment, I am just experimenting with

I have the exact same setup (unless you have the new release of '98), even
the same partition numbers. First,

There is no requirement that W98 be on the first partition, but none

I don't know how lilo works exactly. but,the general rule is that the
partition for win98 must be bootable itself. Then MBR is capable of switching
