With XOSL that i use, installing Windows at any time would not cause any

I insert the XOSL floppy and restore it! Then i am on XOSL as before! Cool!
I wonder if Mandrake could include a similar restore facility.
It does. You can run the Mandrake CD in rescue mode and it will rewrite Lilo
to the MBR if it has been overwritten. You can then manually add boot
options for Windows 98, XP, etc.
I could be wrong, but I think the restore function reads lilo.conf, restoring
all entries that previously existed--including Winblows entries. Can anybody
confirm this?
Miark
windows entries are restored too if i remember correctly
