reformatting MBR
I am having an error messages such as No operating system or, 40 40 40... on the screen after the hard disk jumpers were not set up correctly. What is the command to redo the master boot record? John Kerr Anderson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux 2.2

Re: reformatting MBR
just re-load lilo into the MBR just make sure your lilo.conf is configured right to install to the MBR use the line: boot=/dev/hda to install to the primary, master hd, change accordingly for other drives. nate John Anderson wrote: I am having an error messages such as No operating system or, 40 40 40... on the screen after the hard disk jumpers were not set up correctly.
