There are many ways... If you are lucky you will have *.old initrds so just edit your grub prompt to use initrd.img.old rather than initrd.img (via text mode in grub) Failing that, boot with a rescue dvd, chroot into your install and force the install of util-linux from mga2. Then regenerate your initrd. Failing massive filesystem corruption it's almost always possible to rescue things - just takes varying degrees of effort! :) Col -- Colin Guthrie colin(at)mageia.org http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited http://www.tribalogic.net/ Open Source: Mageia Contributor http://www.mageia.org/ PulseAudio Hacker http://www.pulseaudio.org/ Trac Hacker http://trac.edgewall.org/
