Hey Bosko, > >Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to get the computer working >again because I'm stumped.
First of all, you will need to remove all Linux partitions from the hard disk. You'll need the Linux fdisk, cos' the DOS version cannot handle Linux partitions. If Linux is still working in the system, then get a console (as root) and type 'fdisk /dev/hda' (you have an IDE disk, do you?). At the prompt that appears, type 'p' to print to screen the partition table. You'll see a table showing your current partitions. Then type 'd' to delete each partition. The system will ask you the partition number, look for the number appended to the device name (/dev/hda) in each case. Remember to say goodbye to your installation before doing this, as the Linux installation will be gone after this :( Next, go to a running Windows PC, make a boot disk, copy fdisk.exe in it, and boot the ex-Linux system with it. When the ugly A:\> prompt appears, type fdisk /mbr, and that's it. After that, reboot and run fdisk again, this time without parameters. Create the usual single, whole-disk partition for DOS, reboot again and install Windows. Come back if something goes wrong (hope it doesn't :) cl. _________________________________________________________________ Join the world’s largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
