I deleted the partition using fdisk /dev/hdb5 and and rebooted and you know
what the problem still persistes and now I am totally unable to boot into
Linux because as soon as I boot it it stops saying,
auto detecting RAID arrays
autorun...
...autorun DONE.
kernel Panic : VFS : unable to mount root on 03:45
Please help me . All I need to do is delete the partition. Nothing else.
