My /var disk crashed this weekend. Now when I boot the system stops direct after the boot-loader starts processing. No errormessages no nothing.

Where can I find resources on how to solve this problem so I can boot my system again? It's not extremely important for me to keep the system, but I have a RAID10 and a RAID5 system that I absolutely must be able to get data from.

Kind regards,

Joachim Dagerot
