Re: I've lost my Linux

[Shahar Dag]

Hi   I don't know about GRUB but this worked for me at the past for: - dual boot NT & RedHat (I think RH6.2) & lilo, after I changed the disk size - dual boot W2K & RH7.1, after I run sysprep at the W2K   A.     Boot from the Linux CD, go until you get to re-partition the hard disk. STOP HERE, DO NOT DESTROY THE CONTENT OF THE DISK. Write down the partition that contain the Linux boot data. B.     Re-boot, stop when the graphical interface is up C.     Ctrl+Alt+F2 to get to the alpha-numeric command prompt D.     Update the Linux loader (lilo) mount /hda2 /mnt      /* replace the 2 with the correct partition number */ chroot /mnt /bin/bash /* you are now in the environment of the system from the hard disk */ /sbin/lilo exit umount /mnt reboot Hope that this helps Shahar ----- Original Message ----- From: Nx To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 09, 2002 5:41 PM Subject: I've lost my Linux i got 2 OS,  MS's and Linux i had them both working and i could chose which 2 work with by lilo (some linux base program that resembles 2 lilo, but not it )   When I've installed a new HDD my "lilo" did something like "stage1....."and got stock i did know how 2 work this out with my linux so i've installed my win from CD   i knew it will desapear my linux now i need ideas 2 get it back   10Q
