Hi All

I have an old system that I am trying to boot that will not boot.

As originally setup there were two HD in the system.
One with data and one with the operating system.

The HD with data has long since been removed and current location is unknown.

The system boots to Finding Modular dependencies: OK
Checking file systems
Couldn't find matching file system: Label=/mnt/Snoopie
This was the name of the old second HD.

I have removed LABEL=/mnt/Snoopie from stab.
I know there is at least one other place I need to remove this LABEL from.

Does anyone have any suggestions where that may be.

Thanks
Frank

Please tell us what distribution was originally used. Please tell us what boot manager is/was used. Please tell me what 'stab' is (fstab?). If 'fstab', send us 'fstab' as attachment or inline. If you can boot from emergency/recovery/install floppy or CDROM, send us the output of 'fdisk -l /dev/TheDriveInQuestion'.

If you have an install distribution CDROM,
 why not reinstall without formatting?

HTH, Chuck
