Re: [newbie] Going back to Grub from LILO..
It was Oct 10, 2000, 21:18, when Gavin keyboarded: Ladies and Gents, Need some help, I was praticing loading linux from a floppy and now I have LILO loading my system, the problem is I want GRUB back. how do I do this without re-loading Linux and losing all my setting and mail? Boot into Linux, log in as Root. Go to /boot/grub, and run ./install.sh That gets your Grub back. Paul -- You have triggered an idiot-alarm.

Go there again and, as root, type: chmod +x install.sh Then, try again to run the file. Cheers --- Larry

Re: [newbie] Going back to Grub from LILO..
When you see an install file with the '.sh' on the end, do 'sh install.sh' from the command line instead of './install.sh' Does that make sense?
