Hello all,
I have recently installed Linux-Mandrake 7.0 on my system, making it a
dual boot system. I have a 7gb partition for Linux and the rest of my 15gb
partitoin is used for winbloz. When I installed Linux, I used Partition
Magic to partition my drive, and I then installed Boot Magic to use as my
boot loader instead of Linux. When I set up Boot Magic, It was unable to
see my Linux partiton, but I left it alone and continued to install Linux.
When I got Linux installed and got to the screen about loading LILO, I was
told that my boot record was not fully below the 1024 cylinder level so LILO
would be unable to load. Now with the install complete, the only way I can
boot into Linux is with my boot disk.
My question is, can I install GRUB (the next version of LILO) to remedy
my problem? If I can, how would I go about installing it? Can I download
it without downloading all of Linux-Mandrake 7.1? I really appreciate any
help anyone can give. thanks in advance!
