i cant get to the recovery console (i have XP) to fisk the "mbr"... i cant even figure out how to get dos to boot up so i can attempt a fix... im tryin to get rid of lilo so i can just boot windows normally and use knoppix for my linux... the mandrake i had wasnt cuttin it so i deleted the partition... can i use knoppix to make the changes so lilo wont be in the way? thanks in advance..
