Can I use the SuSE 11 DVD as a rescue system to boot 11.0?
In the old suse installation, there was a choice to boot an installed system, is that still available?
The feature was removed. :-( Perhaps you could use the supergrub cd instead. There is another method. No, two methods. One is to boot the DVD into automatic rescue mode, it should be able to repair things. Another is to boot the DVD into manual rescue, ie, into console. Once there, you have to manually mount your system (root /) and boot partition if it exists, for instance in /mnt, and do: mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev chroot /mnt/ /bin/bash --login Once there, you should be able to use your normal Yast in text mode, and try then to restore/repair/whatever grub. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
