Last night, I tried to rebuild my boot loader. I made use of $/sbin/lilo and now I my PC can load the green main graphical menu before starting any O.S. Choosing the option Linux isn't yet a so good idea. Some errors appeared: read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev03:0a, block 64, size 1024) read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev03:0a, block 8, size 1024) kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:0a Reading the tutorial LILO-crash-rescue-HOWTO that comes with SuSE CD #1 it is said to add some lines to fstab

Edit /etc/fstab (not /rootpart/etc/fstab) and put (sample code given here) -

______________________________________________________________________ /dev/hda4 /rootpart ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda5 /rootpart/boot ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda6 /rootpart/usr ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda7 /rootpart/var ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda8 /rootpart/opt ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda9 /rootpart/root ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda10 /rootpart/home ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda11 /rootpart/win95part vfat defaults 1 1

(In this case I already know that my /boot, /usr, /bar, ...partitions are on hda6) Sorry I'm a beginner and I don't know whether it applies or not to me. 'Could you help again? a. Anders Johansson escreveu:

So, as Ken suggested too, I should use the command

/usr/sbin/grub_install /dev/hda

Are you saying you have that command? On my machine it's grub-install, not grub_install.

When you log in to the rescue system, you should

mkdir tmpdir mount /dev/hda6 tmpdir cd tmpdir chroot . (note the space and dot) grub-install /dev/hda
