Dear Debian folk,
Important Question... If my hard drive crashed, and my machine boots
from the hard drive, how far in the boot process would it get?
If I just messed up /etc/fstab (1), how can I fix it?
I've got some rescue disks, but NONE for any of my 2.4.x kernels.
They were all too big to fit on a floppy. They are for 2.2.x
After (IF?) this gets resolved, I'll have to learn to make a
bootable CD "rescue" disk. :)
By the way, the boot goes for a while, obviously some modules are
being looked at, then I get a kernel panic, and the suggestion I pass root=
to tell it where to look for the hard drive.
This happens with any of my kernels on the machine, or any of my
rescue disks.
Thanks a ton, I'm really working hard to use Debian always. I love
the multiple-arches, I love apt-get and dselect, but it ALWAYS seems like I
am having one trouble or the other :)
(1) trying to swtich from /cdrom to /cdrom0 and /cdrom1, maybe I
accidentally edited the wrong line, also?
