Ok, i found a neater way for you to do that.. ;) go to: http://www.lnx-bbc.org/download.html fetch the iso image. boot with the image, log in as root. mount your partition, and chroot to it: mount /dev/hda1 /tmp chroot /tmp /bin/shIf you have other filesystems you are forced to mount, you shouldn't really do this unless you have to. If you do this, you need to clean up before you go:
mount -a Re-install lilo by running lilo. Back out once again: exit (exit back to lnx-bbc) umount /tmp sync (i like to play it safe) shutdown the system and boot up without the bootable CD-Image.That's the quick tour on recovering from a HD failure, there are better howtos for this, but if you are clever you should be able to do it with this.
