I always use Knoppix for something like this. Boot the CD with knoppix 2 typed in at the boot: prompt then hit the enter key now use once booted: mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/hda2 chroot /mnt/hda2/ /sbin/lilo -v And that should install it if the lilo.conf is setup to install into the MBR otherwise you would need to edit the file before running the chroot command. Also you can use mkboot to make yourself a boot floppy.
Thanks for the reply Stephen I will try that! Does it matter what version of kernel is installed on the Knoppix disc? My Knoppix disc has a 2.6.x kernel. Also is it correct I should type "knoppix 2" at the boot prompt? Regards, Zach
