i Fscked up my Win partition and im getting ready to format and reinstall, but im afraid that its going to over write LILO, so i need to make a boot disk to get back into linux when im done, how do i make a boot disk

Can't remember,it's either mkbootdsk or mkbootdisk but try both...i always use dd to make boot disks if you'd like to try that way,then do dd if=/vmlinuz of=/dev/fd0 bs=8192 count=1.This will make a boot image of your current kernel.Hope this helps
