recoverable lilo can not sit after 1024 cylinder and i
think u have come accroos the 1024 cylinders now only
thing u have do is use fdisk utility and remember the
partition no. and use the help of loadline.exe at
windows  . mount cd rom drive and go to dosutils out
there and copy loadline to c:\
then boot the linux with floppy and copy the totall 
/boot directory contents to floppy ans shutdownthe
sytem next when u go to windows prompmt copy the
totall boot contents which is there on floppy on c:\

so u have 
10 loadlin.exe and 2) the kernel vmlinuz 
go to only dos mode not win-dos mode and give the
command c:>loadlin vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5(where the
native is mounted while using fdisksay /dev/hda5)

how to use fdisk

at booting time choose fdisk






it will take u to a mode which is cui based first wat
u do is say p then 2)d then delete the last partiion
of windows  and then say n and say l and then ur linux
partion native is ready 
say p again to see the information      and now u go
for  linux swap  same previous process and after
