Subj : Removing Linux boot

 * Originally in: Windows.2xxx

On my W2K system, I created Linux partitions using Partition Magic, and
installed Corel Linux-- adding the Linux boot utility, LILO to the boot sector
(I know-- I should have added it to the Linux root).

I'd like to remove the Linux partitions, restoring the space to my W2K
partition... which I could do easily with PM-- but that would still leave the
LILO boot manager in place.

On a Win9x system, I would remove that, using FDISK /MBR, but I suspect doing
that to a WinNT/2K system would leave it unbootable-- at least to Win2K.

Am I going to have to boot to the W2K install CD-ROM, and run the repair
module? Will I have to re-install SP1 after that? Or is that when I get to use
the unbootable Emergency Recovery Diskette (see previous message)?
