[LUG] restoring grub or lilo

 

Hi

I had a dual boot. win98 and linux (kanotix) system, since upgrading to XP, I can only boot to Linux using a floppy, is there a utility in debian thats gui based that can restore grub, I seem to remember one in Suse, I know I can type grub-install hda, but I remember a gui, that gives the user a little more control with a more user friendly way of setting things up, like which os boots by default, etc.

There seems to be lots of menus, and tools, and also a debian menu option, which duplicates most or all of whats on the other part of the kde menu, which is somewhat confusing (especially for total beginners, (not me), but I think this can cause problems for people coming from windows.

Thanks

Paul
