I went through the steps, and let it detect that my drive was FAT32 (and not NTFS). When it asked to select which partitions to format, I unchecked all of them. I skipped everything, and remade my boot disk. Then I had it re-install the boot loader (lilo).</p> <p>So, my questions are:<br /> 1) How can I fix my linux install and/or my boot disk the next time I change the format of a windows drive? (I may change WinXP to NTFS from FAT32)<br /> 2) How do I re-install lilo with the boot disk? What do I do at the command prompt?</p> Mon, 07 Jan 2002 04:27:15 +0000 Mark Hensler comment 1097707 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/server-management/reinstall-lilo#comment-1097705 <p>You will need a Linux boot disk to re-install lilo.</p> Mon, 07 Jan 2002 02:04:00 +0000 mairving comment 1097705 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
