Hi
well ive got a slight prob with LILO, ive been trying to delete my linux partition and merge my entire hard drive back into one but when I do so LILO is still there, even after I erase the linux partition and I was pretty sure that it was on the boot record or something anyway, but all it comes up with upon rebooting is LIL and thats just
just LIL and it wont let me load into anything so I end up reinstalling red hat and partitioning off 1gig again, Im just waiting till I get a new hard drive to install Linux again
any ideas on how to get rid of lilo, once and for all?
thanks
