I have a 4 G m/c which formerly had 2, 2GB partitions running NT and 95.
On the 95 partition I installed linux ( from the PCQ CD).
Now the fdisk command shows me the following:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 252 2024158+ 83 Linux native
/dev/hda2 262 523 2104515 5 Extended
/dev/hda3 253 261 72292+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hda5 262 522 2096451 7 OS/2 HPFS
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The NT partition is being shown as HPFS !!!!
When I try executing /sbin/lilo -v , I get the following error:
**************************************************************************
LILO version 20, Copyright 1992-1997 Werner Almesberger
Reading boot sector from /dev/hda1

Could any guru enlighten on where I am messing things
