Hi I somehow destroyed some of my boot files, as it seems. The bootmanager seems to work: The F1-FN selection appears and works for a different install on the same disk. But if I chose the broken one, all that appears is a / and the machine hangs. I fscked and successfully mounted that partition with help of the fixit floppy. So my questions: 1) what's the problem here and how can I fix it? 2) if it actually would be a broken mbr, how would I fix that? i looked for boot0cfg on the fixit floppy, but as boot0cfg is linked to libc, I guess it didn't fit onto there. is it on the fixit cd rom at least? thanks, t.
