Dear list members,
Back after some gap.I am not comp. pro I am a medical doctor by
profession & this is a hobby thing--

This is my story...

successfully created a new pri dos partition by resizing my original
partion - without loosing anything. Thanks to FIPS.
Booted through debian cd (developrIQ). followed the prompts..
installed the LILO in
the MBR, couldnot configure monitor, xserver. Windows now couldnot be
booted to because of lilo in MBR. It was just a unix box. Some how
edited lilo.conf usinf vi.
Uncommented the lines
other=dev/hda1
label=windows

made default=windows timeout was 20. No other changes made. did :W to
save :q to quit. Then rebooted. Winodws alive !
Rebooted, at lilo prompt tried to enter linux but no use. System
booted windows.
Inserted linux boot disk... but it was damaged... boot failed.
Used loadlin to go to linux but it said 'Image not found'.
Back to square one - windoze !
Is there any thing I can do to get back to linux ?

I think I should have entered 'prompt' keyword in lilo.conf file, &
everything would have been ok.
