Dual-Boot Problem
Greet the sun all:
I had a working dual-boot environment between NT and Debian. I am using
the BootPart utility. I had my laptop upgraded and I moved everything
over using Norton Ghost. The NT booted fine but when I selected Linux
from the NT Boot Commander, the BootPart utility could not find LILO.
Using my rescue disk, I booted into Debian and did an /sbin/lilo,
thinking that LILO needed updating because the size of the harddrive had
changed. After rebooting, I still cannot boot into Debian unless I use
the rescue disk. The laptop is pretty much the same: same model, larger
harddrive, bigger screen.
Any thoughts on what went wrong?
