Quote: Could you give a little more information - what is the error that you are getting? 010101010101010101010101010101010101 (instead of lilo) Did you install lilo on the MBR or on the Linux partition? yes When using lilo, does an option for Windows come up as a choice in lilo? yes Is there a reason why you are disconnecting the second hard drive? For example, is it an external or internal drive? internal drive. sometimes connect my HD on other pc (contains data i need)

I have 2 HDs. On the first HD I have installed windows and on the second linux mandrake (with lilo bootmanager). Now when i want to boot with only my first disk (second disk is not connected to pc) i get error. How can i fix this? i know i can do fdisk /mbr to restore windows boot. But when my second HD is connected i want to load the bootmanager. summary 1 HDisk -> boot from that disk 2 HDisks -> load bootmanager thx
