Yep. You have two choices: use rescue mode to get the current install you have working, or try to get another install to work properly. If you are in a rush, use rescue mode. If you want to try the fresh install, the trick seems to be related to the partitions and formatting. I think you need a separate /boot partition, which needs to be formatted during the install. _______________________________________________ yellowdog-general mailing list [email protected] http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/mailman/listinfo/yellowdog-general HINT: to Google archives, try '<keywords> site:terrasoftsolutions.com'
