Did you make a floppy boot disk when you installed Linux on
the box? If so, boot with that, then log in as root, type
lilo <Enter>
and Bob's your uncle.
If you don't have a boot disk... someone else will need to
help here.

OK
Not strictly a newbie but I have got a clue on this one.
Theres a box with 10gig windoze98 and 10gig spare
I installed linux mandrake 8 on the box for a collegue
and took the day off
When I came back hed reinstalled windows (prat!) and
overwritten lilo so he cant boot into linux.
Not a problem I can just reinstall linux...
But this wasts shed loads of work hes already done on the OS
nad code hes writting.
How can I just reinstall Lilo?
I used the default FS option!
Any help would be very well recieved
Mike
