Hi, I'm new to the list, and to Linux in general, and I have the following problem.
I installed Debian 2.2 then upgraded to the newest distribution to get support for my video card. Everything was working fine, Xwindows was humming along, and I could boot to either Linux or win me at startup. Then during my next windows session, Norton AntiVirus determined that my boot record had been corrupted and "fixed" it. This has led to the current situation where I can only boot to windows. I have the rescue cd from my original installation of Debian, but when I try to boot using linux root=dev/hda6 (the location of my linux partition) it locks up after displaying a message about a "Kernel panic." So basically, I'm stuck in windows for the moment, and would like to know if there is a way I can get a command line from which i can re-run lilo, which i presume will fix the problem, or some other solution that doesn't involve my re-installing and having to go through all the problems I went through to get this working in the first place. Thanks much, Matt _______________________________________________ Newbie mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] *** To unsubscribe , or change message options, see: http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/newbie
