no, I install RedHat 8.0 in single disk and because I can not find any
proper tools for checking and repairing the hard disk, so I use a win2000
machine to check the linux disk. that is all, there is no problem of
multi-system in one disk.

I install GRUB in Redhat 8.0, and now, I can run Grub, as the boot directory
can be mounted
and I can not mount the root "/" directory manually!

and fsck can not see that partition /dev/sda3, which the root directory
resids on.
and now I can view the partition with "fdisk /dev/sda"

how to fix this hard disk error??? I have much important data on it!!!
