" After copying start windoz and write the following line to boot.ini found on C:\ of windoz." (referring to the C:\bootsect.lnx= ......line)

Are you saying that we over-write the entire boot.ini file with this single line? Or that we include it in the existing file?
Thanks

Ricky:
Ya ofcourse I am saying to add that line in boot.ini U can edit ur boot.ini from linux if you have access to windoz C:\ partition..

Hi

I faced the same problem... but in my case i could not find the boot.ini file in the C:( and also in the entire MyComputer)

So i did n't run the lilo.. i think boot.ini should be present after installling windows itself

what should i do now ????

ajathsatru:
FYI,

I have enabled the Show hidden files options and still i culd not find the boot.ini file ! what cud be the reason ???

Ricky:
You must be on M$ windows XP.. there is in folder options a option which is enabled , disable it. It is Hide protected system files..
