Eric, thanks for the response.
I believe I put lilo in Linux partition which is on /dev/hda2.
I can get Windows 2000 to boot again when I mark it's partition active.

I have a linux boot disk, how do I use it to boot and  be able to edit the
lilo.conf in the /dev/hda2 partition?

I will try again soon once I get home from work.

Regards,

Theng Ung
