It didnt work Kent. But it has to be mounted before i see it right So i treid to mkdir /mandrake mount -t auto /dev/hda1 /mandrake and then edit /etc/lilo.conf but i get this error demo:/# mount -t auto /dev/hda1 /mandrake mount: fs type ext3 not supported by kernel so i tried using tune2fs to convert to ext3 i get this error tune2fs -j /dev/hda1 tune2fs 1.27 (8-Mar-2002) The filesystem already has a journal.
how do i mount and add to lilo regards, vijaya Kent West wrote: > Vijaya S wrote: > > Hi all, > > > > Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes > > 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77545 cylinders > > Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes > > > > Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System > > /dev/hda1 * 1 21164 10666624+ 83 Linux > > /dev/hda2 21165 23287 1069992 5 Extended > > /dev/hda3 23288 42663 9765504 83 Linux > > /dev/hda5 21165 23287 1069960+ 82 Linux swap > > > > I iinstalled Mandrake 10 first on the machine with /dev/hda1 as / > > partition and then /dev/hda5 as swap . > > It happened successfully. > > Then i installed Debian on /dev/hda3 and mounted it as / partition.and > > used /dev/hda5 as swap again. > > But when i boot i get Debian only > > I want to edit lilo to get both Mandrake and Debian in the bootloader > > menu. > > How can i get my Mandrake back ..I cannot boot Mandrake again. > > Boot into Debian; edit /etc/lilo.conf.
