[newbie] Mandrake 8.1 / Win 2k

2002-01-15 Thread Raja Damodaran

Hi.

I've got Mandrake 8.1 and Win 2k on my computer.  I use Mandrake's LILO to 
choose which OS I want to use.

I used Partion Magic to resize my partitons.  Now LILO wont start up.  All I 
get is LIL- and then nothing

Any ideas on how I can get LILO working again?

Not sure how to get you going again, but I can tell you what the 'LIL' means.

you probably will have to use your linux boot disk  or CD # 1 and boot into 
linux that way then go into the Mandrake Control Center and make sure 
everything is correct in the lilo boot configuration.  Do a save on it and 
then go into su console and type in /sbin/lilo. That should reset lilo for 
you.  HTH
