    If you can boot into it from a floppy/CD/DVD, just run `lilo` or `grub` at the command line when you're loaded up.

    How do I boot into it from the cd?
    I booted into the rescue mode on the cd and type grub
    Then the command line changed to this :
    grub>
    Like it was lloking for another command?
