You can try to reinstall lilo on the boot partition with yast2. Run it from console. You might also try to run: cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/bzImage /boot/vmlinuz and then mk_initrd lilo and check if that helps. You can also reinstall the Linux base system with manual installation and yast1 from the CD. Then you should get the boot partition configured correctly. Jostein
===== Original Message From Rickey Ingrassia <r1ckey@attbi.com> ===== Hello List, Is it possible to recover a corrupted boot partition/sector. If so any links to detailed instruction or info would be much appreciated. I'm running SuSE 7.3/Kernel 2.4.10. I'd like to get the boot sector repaired without formating the drive. Currently the system is back up, booted from LiLO on a floppy.
