Hi Cristian;
it isn't clear to me wether you can still boot Linux on your system. If
so, you can review the boot messages with "dmesg" entered at the
console, possibly "dmesg | more" for more readability. Then go and have
a look at /etc/lilo.conf on your system (*not* on the floppy!). What
does it say?
