Does the new mbr at least allow you to boot to windows? If so, do that and head on over to http.us.debian.org. Grab rescue.bin and rawrite2.exe. Use rawrite2 to create a rescue floppy. Boot with the rescue floppy, but instead of merely hitting <enter> at the syslinux prompt, type "rescue root=/dev/hda3" (or whatever your actual root device is, and hit <enter>. Within seconds you should be looking at a login prompt. Log in as root and run lilo. -- Nathan Norman - Staff Engineer | A good plan today is better Micromuse Inc. | than a perfect plan tomorrow. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- Patton
