My dad needs one of the comps I set linux up on and is putting windows on it (he needs to for work). He deleted the partitions but the LILO screen still comes up on boot. I think there is a dos command that will remove it but I can't remember what it is. How do I get rid of LILO?

Seeing as I've done this a thousand times, this is what I do, I toss in my Win98 bootdisk, once the computer boots to the "A:" prompt type in "fdisk /mbr" with out the quotes and it should restore the boot record and get rid of lilo...
