Hi, i wanted to make a boot floppy for my linux box. Inserted the floppy and typed dd if=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.10 of=/dev/hda1 bs=512. instead of typing of=/dev/fd0 and i wrongly typed of=/dev/hda1. (/dev/hda1 is the partition where my linux is installed). After the command got exectued, i am not able to see any thing in my directories. Like when i type 'ls' i am not able to see any files. Please let me know how i can revert back to the original position. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, sreedhar.
