Well, i put windows on after linux, and it wrote over my mbr. Last time i was using grub, so it was very easy to fix, but now i am using lilo and dont know how to fix it. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.
There may well be some sort of recovery on the installer disk. (Though I haven't used that distro myself). Pop it in and see if there's a recovery tool, it may even have an option to reinstall the mbr on the menu like some other distros.
well, it does not have any rescue feature that i know about, when i boot from the cd, it just puts me into a terminal and tells me to type "yoper" to install. No rescue or MBR options. Is there a command that i could type in the terminal to fix the MBR?
How can i re-install lilo from a live cd? I heard you just type "lilo" at the console but you have to be on the root yoper partition. How can i mount my root partition from a live cd? Thanks.
