Are you using lilo? If so, you can edit the file etc/lilo.conf.
Do what you did before, and once you've got started, press ctrl-alt-f3
and you should get to a console prompt ( if not, try f2, f4, etc ). df
will show you theold filesystem mounted under /target or similar.
1. chroot /target /bin/bash
2. vi /etc/lilo.conf. Use the down arrow until you're the initrd line,
and type dd
the line will disappear. tyle :wq to exit the editor.
3. lilo - this will give you informational messages about the
kernel(s) being loaded.
4. exit
5. ctrl-alt-f7 (f8? f1 ) should get you back to the graphical
installer. abort and reboot
Good luck (:

PS. I;'ve just checked. delete the same line from /etc/grub.conf if
you're using that bootloader. Can't remember if you need to run
anything to install grub though. Can anyone enlightem the OP on this?
then a message box came up:
Program Exited Abnormally (return code 1)
make any sense?
