When I install the first time SuSE Linux 7.1 i make lilo installation in a floppy. I have Windows 2000 in another partition in the same harddrive. Now I'm thinking what happends if I have a problem with the floppy. I want to know if I can install lilo in the harddrive now without installing linux again.

try command Lilo -L
"man lilo" will give you all the explanations.

Hai, Have u loaded linux within 1024 cylinders (8 GB) of ur hard disk ? If so, u can run '/sbin/lilo' to install lilo onto ur MBR of the harddisk. To create a new bootable floppy disk, run - '/sbin/mkbootdisk XXX --device /dev/fd0' where XXX is the kernel version.
Summary: Well, I installed Windows 2000 Pro on hda1 and then installed Linux RedHat 6.2 on hda2. I thought it was all OK until I triecd to go back to W2K and got a message "OS Missing"... Does any one know if...
