If you made a Linux boot floppy, then it is easy. Boot with the floppy,
log in as root, and run lilo. You will have to edit /etc/lilo.conf if
your Windows partition changed. (Chances are it did not.)
If you do not have a boot floppy, then you will have to boot with the
install floppy, or the Red Hat cdrom, and type rescue at the LILO:
prompt. Things get a bit harder after this. You have to mount your
root partition, and run "lilo -r <your root directory>". If your /boot
directory is on a seperate partition, you will need to mount it before
you run lilo.
A final option is to do an install, selectin upgrade as your install
option, and do not select any packages to install. This will leave you
with a few config files to clean up, so use it as your last resort.
Once you have the system running again, MAKE A BOOT DISK! (mkbootdisk)
