Yesterday, my system stopped in the middle of the shutdown procedure. The filesystems were not unmounted at time, afaik.
Okay...
Now, during boot I get "no operating system found". That might be explainable as the file system were not unmounted, but... I get the same message while using knoppix.... The bootorder is first removable media, CD, HD. What may cause this, is the MBR just correct, and does that influence booting from CD with knoppix??
No.
Looking forward to the ultimate trick!
Okay, I'm assuming this is a desktop. First, make sure that there's no floppy in the drive and boot again from the CD. (I know some people just overlooked *that* ;) If that doesn't work, pull all the power/data cable off from the HDD and FDD _then_ boot again from the Knoppix CD. If that doesn't work, check the media and/or try again with a different CD.
