The
dd if=/boot/boot.0301 of=/dev/hda bs=446 count=1
went through, ("1+0 in, 1+0 out" etc) but made no difference to booting --
still "Lil-" and system hangs.
also tried `lilo -U /dev/hda1' which seemed to work okay but didn't make any
difference to bootup either.
I also tried (treading dangerous ground now!) making every partition
unbootable apart from the NT partition, but that didn't work either, so I
restored it. Currently the ones active are:
/dev/hda6 -- that's my linux partition
/dev/hda2 -- that's a 4mb partition with boot.ini, io.sys and others, for
the NT boot loader
/dev/hda5 -- that's the NTFS partition containing NT
My system _did_ work before -- honest!!
Thank you all for still taking a notice of me (this is the 4th letter
concerning the MBR!)
