Laptop Hard Drive questions

Anyone know if the rail assembly for the 475mc is similar to other Dell Latitudes? I assume it is similar to the other 486 models, but what about the newer ones? It is easier to find parts for the newer models.

A LI....LO problem I think

I believe the LI means LILO is loading but it can no longer find the boot partition. You can probably get your pre-LILO boot sector back by booting off a DOS floppy, chaging to the drive that LILO is installed on and typing fdisk /MBR This will restore your old Boot sector.
