Subject: LILO repair
I recently uptraded from RH 6.0 to RH 6.1 during the last step of the
upgrade process I was asked something to the effect "Do you want to write
the changes to your boot sector" or something like that.... I inadvertently
chose not too.

Well, now I can only boot from a floppy. It is as if part of the code for
booting from the HD did not get written to the boot sector when I did the
upgrade. When I try and boot from the HD the system goes part of the way
through the boot process and hangs.

How do I repair this problem?


Thanks,
