[PLUG] Uninstalling Linux
A newbie asks:
I need to uninstall linux from my computer. I have windows 98 running on
one partition, caldera openlinux 2.4 on the other. I created these
partitions using Partition Magic.
I went to Caldera's website for instructions and was told to "root run
lilo -u." Frankly, I am not sure how to do that since I went to the
terminal typed "run lilo -u" and was told there was no run command.
Also, what do I do after run lilo -u. Can I use Partition Magic to then
erase the Linux partition entirely. Do I have to rewrite the boot loader
in anyway?
My goal is NOT to have to erase the Windows partition.
Thanks so much for your help and this website!
