-   Hi everybody,

I am using a dual-boot system and I use lilo as boot loader!
I will need to re-install Ms Windows Xp, and I would like to know if there is any way to put my Mandrake back on working after re-installing it?

Basically I am looking for something that restores lilo after re-installing th e WinXp!

Thank you very much,

Rui A. Lopes

-   Boot with the first Mandrake CD, and when the splash screen comes up, press
'F1'. When the next screen comes up, type 'rescue' and hit enter. This
will present you with a list of options, one of them will be to reinstall
your boot loader. When you are done, you can reboot.
