I don't know much about LILO (I use grub on a dual-boot system with Windows), but when I reinstall Windows I have to put my restart the PC with my FC1 CD in the drive and at the boot prompt I type "linux rescue". This goes through a basic rescue startup. The rescue mounts my Linux partition on /mnt/sysimage, so I have to chroot to that and then I just type "grub-install /dev/hda" and it's back to normal. Hope this helps. > ------------------------------ > > Message: 5 > Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2004 16:25:33 +0200 > From: "Fidahoussen Youssoufe Laurent" <subaka_newsletter@xxxxxxxx> > Subject: install Windows after Fedora > To: "For users of Fedora Core releases" <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> > Message-ID: <01af01c44d64$76e739f0$8be536c1@fnak7> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > Hi everybody, > I have a recurrent problem.
