I needed more room so I reduced the size of an unused Windows/NTFS

broke the MBR so when I boot, I get a string of 9's and nothing else
happens. How can I restore the MBR? I was using lilo if that makes a
difference. I have a copy of the original sarge disk1 and a Knoppix
5.0 disk at home. Will either of these simplify the repair/
Boot from Knoppix.
#sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 (or wherever your / partition is)
#sudo chroot /mnt/hda1
#mount -a
#lilo
#exit
#reboot
