Hi I had the same problem a last month. Are you sure that the hard drive connections are okay ? It might seem stupid but on my system, a wire had melted due to overheat and there was no problem with the hard disk logically. Does the BIOS detect the hard disk . If it does then there will be a problem with hdd logically. Else it might be something physical . Good luck Cheedu ------------------------------------------------------------------------- email: omicron@pes.edu website: www.geocities.com/sri_dhar_n It is impossible to do anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious ------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Wed, 3 May 2000, Stan Koper wrote:
I was doing some work with gimp the other day, when the computer froze. There was nothing to do but press the reset button, and when it came back, the message indicated that the hard drive was no longer available (insert system disk and press enter).
Can I get my hd back, or do I need to reformat and re-install? I can boot to the hard disk by using the boot disk that came with SuSE (6.3), so it's sort of usable, but I'd hate to have to clean the disk and re-install. I've updated a lot of packages, and it's the server for my home LAN.
Thanks,
