[newbie] Major problem

[Eric Budinger]

Hi All,     I hope someone might be able to help me. I had a power loss at the house today and after the linux box rebooted it wouldn’t boot into KDE. IT booted into a login prompt. I was able to login as root or my user name. When I Rebooted the machine in booted into screen and asked me to enter a run level. When I tried 1 3 or 5 or 6 it would just hang. Only way I Am able to log into my box is to boot of CDROM and login using RESCUE. Well I don’t have any clue how to fix my problem of not being able to boot in. I would reload Linux but I CANT loose my /HOME directory. Any tips? Suggestions? ETC??   Thank you! Happy New Year!   Eric
