What exactly do you have behind on the disk, what does it do when you try to boot it? Depending on the state of things, but you could copy /boot/vmlinuz... to /boot, setup /etc/lilo.conf to boot it (if you have one behind that uses /vmlinuz then make is as a symlink to the kernel you copied) and try running lilo (you will need to chroot to the root of your hardisk partition so the right files will be used). If this doesn't work then there is something more wrong with your system. If all the file are there but it just doesn't boot then maybe the chroot + running lilo will be enough. If not then there are more problems, and it may be safer/easier to backup your files (maybe using some linux cd) and reinstall. > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
