OK.. this has happened for the fourth time in a week now... i boot up my computer ( win98 + Red hat 9) and the bootloader just appears half.... like Li-
and it hangs there.
So i put in my windows98 bootable floppy and fdisk /mbr. Now the last three times it happened, i just booted into win98 and using PartitionMagic 8 formatted the Linux partition.
I'm tired of formatting the linux partition and having to set up linux all over again...
Is there any way i could restore the bootloader or perhaps boot into linux and install the bootloader or something??? I haven't created a linux bootable floppy.
Please keep in mind that i'm a real noob at linux... so try keeping the answer really simple.
With Regards,
Umesh
