Dear SIPBers;

During your 
	IAP: Installing Linux-Athena workshop
	on Wed., Jan 17
one of your colleagues kindly installed Linux-Athena on my
	Sony Vaio notebook (model: PCG-F560).

Unfortuantely, it never worked for me even when was I directly connected 
the an on-campus networking drop.
[FYIO: I was keep getting:
.....
afs: Lost contact with volume location server ###### in cell athena.mit.edu
]

No I have decided to
	remove Linux-Athena 
system entirely. 
Could you please kindly let me know what is the safest way of removing
Linux-Athena without loosing or hurting my Win. 98 system?

Here are my system configuration:
	- Windows 98 is installed on Partition C:
	- Linux-Athena is instaled on Partition D:
	- It is set a Dual boot and the 
		LILO boot
	  comes on when I reboot the system.

I was thinking of formating the D partition but do not know 
how to get rid of LILO dual booting!

Many thanks in advance.

>> Al
