Ok I put the hypothesis into practice, I logged into my normal environment (I
had to edit the menu.lst file to do this, but it seems that many people are
down with that)
I think these steps will rectify the problem, but I being a little n00bish
mucked up the order and ended up breaking my fresh Intrepid system so proceed
with extreme caution.
Create a directory:
sudo mkdir /mnt/disk
Mount the partition with Intrepid (/dev/sda6 replace this):
sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/disk
Mount the boot partition (if you don't have one then I don't know what to do)
sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk/boot
chroot into the mount:
sudo chroot /mnt/disk /bin/bash
Setup the chroot:
mount -t proc proc /proc
mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys
Install the requisite packages:
aptitude update
aptitude install linux
Its too late to reinstall intrepid to test this so I cannot comment further.
