hi all,
I was running two hard drives, one MDK 2005LE and the other with Windows on. I 
was using lilo to boot into either. I changed the windows hard drive for 
another upon which I loaded another MDK2005LE. When I tried to boot it fell 
down on having a record in fstab of the windows swap partition which it could 
no longer find.
I have tried reloading the lilo using mcc but that doesn't help.
I am now in the position where I have one hard drive loaded with MDK2005LE 
which according to system commander is active bootable, but all I get is a 
load of 99 99 99  99 99 and nothig when I try and boot. I think I need to 
edit fstab and get rid of everything that shouldnt be there but I have no 
idea how to go about it.
I am writing this mail on Knoppix. I have tried to edit fstab using Knoppix 
but I am hitting permission problems and can't find fstab-sync.

What a mess.

Simon
