Hopefully you have access to some other machine that can make a boot flop= py or=20 boot cd. I prefer a boot CD because its faster, quicker, and contains all= the=20 modules and programs in one place rather than 3-4 very slow floppy disks.= =20 Boot to a rescue system and mount your old root hard drive like this: mount /dev/hda1 /mnt That way you have your old OS acessable.

Then simply edit lilo.conf, re-run lilo, and run mk_initrd.=20 Hopefully this will get your system back on its feet.
