hey i've faced the same problem a few days back.... here's what i did finally to solve it... not a solution really .. just a turn around....
i removed my hard disk and took it to a friends place who also had RH 7.2 Installed with EXT3 FS.... connected my HDD to his computer as secondary hard disk and mounted it after booting from my friends RH 7.2 after mounting, i edited /etc/fstab to remove the line which refers to mounting my VFAT partition (MS Windows) saved /etc/fstab and brought back the HDD to my comp... wholla !! everything back to normal.... and remember .. dont add ur MS WINDOWS partition to the fstab file.... u'll have to mount it manually everytime u switch on ur comp..... or put it in a script or .bashrc or something... anyways.. hope this helps... regards Satsco. =========================================== --- "KEDAR NAIK GAONKAR :-)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > hi all... > > i have PIII 850,128MB,i810 system...running > win98,and RH 7.1.. > just yesturday...i deleted linux partitions and > loaded RH 7.2 fresh... > <snip> > > after installation it was working fine > > now when i mounted win d drive in linux editing > /etc/fstab file,it mounted > OK and also i could share the data... > > but after doing this when i rebooted my system,i m > not able to boot > into linux anymore...it starts booting but it stops > after giving one > warning message like.. > > warning: FAT32 support is still ALPHA. > > ..it just hangs after this and i have to forcefully > reset the system.. > i even waited for 15-20 min... > > > any suggestions??? > > > kedar.... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
