Aomighty Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 (edited) Ok, so I was changing around some settings, and I accidentally killed lilo, replacing it with a Windows-only lilo. Anyway, I figured I'd be okay since I could just boot the first Mandriva CD and "restore bootloader." However, I did that, and all it did was it said "added windows *". I tried "restore windows bootloader" and then did it again, and it still did the same thing. My lilo.conf shows only windows, how can I boot into my Mandrake system to restore it? I can boot knoppix to edit lilo.conf and then re-run lilo, but I'm not sure what entry I should add. Could someone tell me what the correct lines to add to lilo would be? Thanks, I hope I don't have to use Windows for too long... Edited July 26, 2005 by Ao the Unstoppable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aomighty Posted July 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Turns out the boot floppy I had worked when I thought it didn't. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
