Someone else was using it and now when I select the Linux option at boot time, it says that some kernel.exe file is missing and does not boot. Windows boots fine. I tried using a linux boot floppy from another Linux machine (Redhat 6.2) to get into the linux partition and install LILO (thinking that it might be a problem with the loader), but could not find the boot partition mounted. Doing fdisk /dev/hda gives me the error "Unable to load /dev/hda" Could someone suggest a way out? Thanks in Advance, Abhijit. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
