That seems to be the problem...they're not GETTING a prompt... just boots to
Win98...
James... Go to your Linux Distro ftp site and pick up a boot and rescue
image and find a copy of the program to write a Linux boot disk in Windows
(Sorry...forget the program name) and create a boot disk and a rescue disk.
Then, using at least the boot/install disk (you may need to run the rescue
disk instead) type the command Axalon gave below... should take you into
Linux where you can re-run lilo and it'll reinstall lilo on your MBR.
