that cli is minimal, and lacks the command: find.
All CLI interfaces I'm familiar with have a prompt of some sort. Do you have any prompt on that screen? Grub Legacy's is grub>. Root's bash shell ends in #. Other's bash shell ends with $. If you have no prompt, you have no CLI, just a useless screen implying no instructions to proceed further. Yes, i know, it sounds stupid. But it is very limited. It says grub> _

Just behind the bios, nothing is loaded yet. But if you can supply me with the proper comands, i will try what can be done with this prompt. sda3 /boot Kernel: Linux 3.7.0-rc2-4-desktop i686 The other thing is a mistake i made: i never use lvm. This time i thought ok, lets try it. Lvm is not supported yet in Knoppix, so the partitions could not get mounted, only windows and /boot were visible. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
