Subject: re-setting up LILO?
Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2002 13:16:06 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D0F9506.3000408@adelphia.net> (raw)
Hello all,
I recently installed Windows XP and reformatted to NTFS. I then
Installed my partition magic and bootmagic, and boot magic wouldn't
install to the ntfs partition. well, my problem is that boot magic said
to not use lilo in the mbr so I told lilo to boot from ext2 partition
and bootmagic booted lilo from the partition. now that I don't have
bootmagic I have to boot from floppy as Lilo doesn't come up. I read
through the man pages and the help from "lilo --help" and I can't figure
out how to get Lilo to boot from the MBR again? does anyone know which
option tells LILO to boot from the MBR instaed of the ext2 partition?
Thanks
