After putting in a new motherboard, I find that lilo will boot me just fine into SuSE, but my W2K boots, but then goes into a GPF (remember those). I have made a rescue disk for SuSE in Yast1. Question is, if I reinstall HDa, with W2K, will the SuSE rescue disk work, so that I can boot up SuSE on hdb? I would really hate to be out both OSs. What is the best way of approaching this to insure I can boot into SuSE and redo /sbin/lilo so that lilo can be put back into the MBR when I reinstall W2K, because when I reinstall W2K, I will need to get in SuSE to set up Lilo again in the MBR to run it. Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Right now, I have hda which is useless and need to do something. I must reinstall as a last resort. -- Best regards, Gary Today's thought: Chaos, panic, pandemonium - my work here is done.
