First I want to make sure you are getting these. I hope I am disconnected from the social networking mess. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of blann Sent: Friday, September 03, 2010 3:59 PM To: Getting started with Red Hat Linux Subject: Re: This is just amazing... If I may change the subject and, as usual ask for help (and thanks for past responses): Many moons back I must have damaged my MBR (winXP,FC6). A helpful member sent a cd with ubuntu , and now there is a boot choice(grub) between that OS and XP. I am trying to see if I can restore the grub loader to get into my old FC installation which is likely still on my HD. I have tried my disk1 from FC6 to do a reinstall, it seems to go thru motions, but a revised grub loader does not come up- even tho I get a message during install that boot loader is being installed- and an installation complete msg. Is there a way to repair or replace what I am assuming is a damaged mbr/grub loader due to having turned off a hung up XP with AC button? I have, via generosity of an active member of the group, an FC12 set of install disks; have hesitated running this for fear I would overwrite /home directory, whereas the FC Bible advises that simple re-install of FC6 should not do this. Any comments greatly appreciated!
