i guess you need loadlin -----Original Message----- From: Vavi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 18 June 2001 6:47 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [linux-delhi] lilo boot taking the queue... i wanted to ask one more thing... i know its a bit off topic, but quite relevant.. on a computer, i had both win/linux dual boot using lilo. now when i reinstall win, the MBR gets over-written, and so the dual boot option is now unavailable.. ofcourse i had a boot floppy for rescue.. but isnt there any app in dos which can atleast copy a minimal lilo , wherein, atleast we could give a "root=/boot/KERNEL" etc... because, otherwise , without a boot floppy, its a chicken and egg problem. you need lilo for linux, and linux for lilo. !! thanx vavi ----- Original Message ----- > hi charmie this is > kshounish > just boot with disk and after enterring into linux > just do#lilo > if it shows something with 1024 cylineder then try to > install linux iwithin 8 gb or use loadlin option > or else if it doesnt show u error that means it will > overrride the mbr u have to run lilo once. ------------------------------------------------ An alpha version of a web based tool to manage your subscription with this mailing list is at http://lists.linux-india.org/cgi-bin/mj_wwwusr
