Hey all,

Ran into a problem today, wondering if anyone knows a solution. One of the
guys at work has a laptop that had linux loaded on it a few years ago
(using lilo, set to default boot to windows). Yesterday, he turned his
computer on, it booted up to a blank screen, so he brought it in today, I
tried booting it up, and the farthest I get is that it gets past the bios
screen, goes to LILO, but all you see of the LILO prompt is "LI" and then
it's just stuck. I'm thinking the MBR might have gotten corrupted. Does
anyone know of a way to fix this problem? I'm assuming I need to boot up
with a floppy, but have no idea on a good utility to use/etc.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Joel
