Hi,
Sparky your boot sector can be re-built using the correct
version of FDISK that goes with your version of WinDoze, using as
suggested by others
fdisk /mbr
I have always been under the impression that if you dual boot
LINUX and WinDoze that LILO is not placed in the master boot
record but some place else on the hard disk, the old grey
matter seems to remember that this only applies if its
WinDoze N(ot)T(ested) ( true / false? anyone)
I have never bothered to Phaff about dual booting except with a
sysquest as the boot disk and using different disks for various
operating systems. The old help desk computer supported 7
O/S using this idea. So I would be interested in hearing how it
should be done properly
