Mandrake Helios. This morning I did something really dumb. I had the
following (part of the partitions):
/dev/hdb7 / ext2 defaults
/dev/hdc10 /Venus ext2 exec,dev,suid,rw 1 1
/dev/hdc11 /programs ext2 exec,dev,suid,rw 1 1
where Venus was an older RH installation. I deleted everything on
/dev/hdc10 and moved all of the files on /program to /dev/hdc10 and then
renamed the two mount points in /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab.
Unfortunately when I attempt to reboot into Helios the boot hangs on:
Setting /boot/System.map to the current running kernel
until I hit CTRL-C, at which point the boot moves on to:
Booting other file systems
where it hangs completly until the three finger salute.
Using Explore2fs I find that mtab is now empty and mtab~ has the old file
mount point information.
I have a floppy boot disk, but not a rescue disk.
Help!!!!!
