Dual-Boot Problem



Greet the sun all:

I had a working dual-boot environment between NT and Debian.  I am using
the BootPart utility.  I had my laptop upgraded and I moved everything
over using Norton Ghost.  The NT booted fine but when I selected Linux
from the NT Boot Commander, the BootPart utility could not find LILO. 
Using my rescue disk, I booted into Debian and did an /sbin/lilo,
thinking that LILO needed updating because the size of the harddrive had
changed.  After rebooting, I still cannot boot into Debian unless I use
the rescue disk.  The laptop is pretty much the same: same model, larger
harddrive, bigger screen.

Any thoughts on what went wrong?
