Hi guys, so it's been a while since i've dual booted, i just have a couple boxes now, anyway a friend recently asked me this questions ... and i don't how to respond ... any thoughts? >I ran into a problem upgrading RedHat- I inadvertently wrote Lilo into the MBR so there is no way to reinstall without losing >everything on my drive, unless you know some way. she's dual booting between RH 7.0 and Win 98 on a single hard drive. she wants to save the files on the win 98 partition, but she believes (and i don't know otherwise) that upgrading would entail starting from scratch on the hard drive b/c of the lilo/MBR situation .. is this true? .... oh she wants (maybe needs) to start with a fresh RH b/c of hardware incompatibility problems and some critical files that appear to be missing thanks everyone, -keith :-)
