Win-Installation will mess up an existing boot loader - no way out.
After that You will need to boot into a Linux-CD and reinstall the boot loader.
For lilo do the following (assuming Your linux-root lies on /dev/hda2):
| Code: | # mkdir /mnt/hda2
# mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/hda2
# lilo -C /mnt/hda2/etc/lilo.conf |
For grub do the following (assuming Your linux-boot lies on /dev/hda1):
| Code: | # grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> quit |
