But how do I edit grub / lilo ( I am using lilo) as I am not being able to boot into linux. I also dont have a floppy drive to boot from a bootable floppy. During my installation, I had selected linux as my default boot. I also tried upgrading linux after installation, but it didnt update the lilo boot options. Plz let me know. thanks.
