[LUG] Reinstall LILO

 

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi All,

I need to reinstall Windows (shock I know).  Anyway the system dual
boots.  I know how to get LILO back up and running after Windows
stuffs the MBR, but what I don't know is how to make a Linux boot disk
(daft I know).  Can I just use a live distro and run 'linux
root=/dev/hda8' (linux boots off hda8 in my system)?

Kind regards,

Julian
