Yup, that's exactly what I had to do. Started the install and selected the fix option, then when complete reran lilo and all was fine. Thanks to all who made suggestions. dave Jerry Feldman wrote:
Been there :-) I usually do that, start an install selecting no packages, then the installer will put you into the lilo screen if I recall. Or, you can boot the installed system, then run Lilo.

Built a new dual boot box for a friend who immediately decided he needed to modify what I had done and used Partition Magic to re-size the win98 side from one to three partitions. Upon completing this task he attempted to reboot and got to LI before the system hung. I'm getting the box back to "repair' and am assuming all I need to do is reboot using the disk #1 from the distro (SuSE 7.3) to reload Linux, then just rerun LILO and all should be O.K.
Am I missing anything here?
