Yes, but you need to boot using a Win98 boot disk to do that AFAIK. So, get one, boot to a DOS prompt and the command you gave IS then correct. =) Cheers Jason Dennis Myers wrote: On Saturday 20 September 2003 07:41 pm, Scott wrote: Hello I want to take a slave hard drive out of a box that

Hi all ! I have tried unsuccessfully to let X-Windows work on my Inspiron 7500, and I will give up on that machine. However I would like to recover my partition for Windows 98. I think I can do that easily (either with Partition Magic or the free linux utility). But I am concerned about the LILO

Lilo resides in the Master Boot Record (MBR) which is, I think, the first sector of the drive, not included in any partitions. Thus, you can wipe all the partitions without touching the MBR. To clear it, run `fdisk /mbr` from DOS. This will clear LILO out of the MBR. -Matt On Thu, 29 Ju

Even though this is a kludge solution, here is what I've done in the past. Boot to a dos floppy. Run windows setup. I don't know what windows does, but both win 98 and win 95 remove LILO and make it boot like windows normally would. At 06:08 PM 7/29/1999 -0500, you wrote: >Hello , here is my di
