LILO is stuck on my hard drive. I tried to repartition and it didn't work. I installed it onto
my MBR. Anyone have any ideas?

Are they exactly the same?
I'm not sure if I would like to try to repartition and it didn't work . What's it like?Interesting gossip:

You can wipe the MBR with even the DOS version of fdisk. Although, if you want GRUB you can simply install a distro that uses it; it will overwrite LILO.

Don't mention it.
