Hello ALL,
I'm not quite sure if this is the right place to post this question, but I really don't know any other option, in this particular case.
I installed LILO in the MBR of the HD which hosts my linux partition and my win95 ones. The problem is, when I deleted my linux partition to re-install i later, I lost the ability to boot Win95, because LILO could not find the Linux Native partition. My question is: HOW can I remove LILO from the MBR, without repartitioning the whole HD? And, can I use LILO from anywhere but the MBR and the floppy (I saw another option in the Slackware install, I think it had something to do with the root parition of linux, but dunno for sure...)
In advance, I thank you all

With your Windoze boot disk type "fdisk /mbr". This assumes you have fdisk on your boot floppy. That will erase your LILO mbr and install a Windoze ONLY mbr. It will then boot Windoze directly.
