Is there a simple way to reconstitute the dual-boot?

Aah, a perennial problem this...

What boot loader are you using?

This happened to me the other week and I restored grub folllowing the instructions here:

Worked a treat as we restored a similarly afflicted machine here at work on Tuesday.

Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it for lilo but a google of 'lilo restore' might indeed be profitable.
