So after the first problem, you reinstalled the system, which worked
for a while, but now will not boot because it can't load a kernel image?
Hmmm... I guess it's possible for a hardware fault or a disk crash to
render your kernel unreadable, but that really is very unlikely unless yo=
ur
whole hard disk has pretty much failed. In which case, you would simply
need a new hard drive. Given you're system can read the MBR and the firs=
t
stages of the boot code, it's clear your disk still has some life left in=
it.
So... far more feasible is that a mistake was made somewhere while you
were working on the system. The up side of that is mistakes are usually =
correctable, once you know where you went wrong.
Can you describe what you were doing to the system before it lost the cap=
acity
to boot up again?
Cheers,
Matthew
