I rewrote my ntfs partition with cfdisk and now I am unable to boot the partition (with windows xp). Can the problem be that i wrote the table with cfdisk or could it be some thing else. In additional there is two different ntfs partition is cfdisk both named same way. I used the first one can't remember the number (or was it 86, don't remember). The reason for doing this was to include slackware to same disk. First I deleted ntfs partition and made it smaller. Motivation for doing this was mbr chrash due use of "System Mechanic 6" or at least I think so. I intalled lilo to mbr and it fixed the mbr problem. Booting problems can also have some thing to do with System Mechanic 6 altering my dll-files or some thing else. The ntfs partition is first partition in the disk and I use lilo-bootloader. Can I fix the partition with ntfstools to be bootable? -- Tommi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
