Jie Chen (chen@int.cni.com.au) spake thusly: : I try to boot linux today, root partition maybe written by win95, NT, or dameged : when I lost power, VFS panic, can not mount linux native root partition. : I normally use floppy disk to boot system, any one know how to recover ext2 root : filesystem? boot with a rescue disk combo and run fdisk on your hd. If fdisk can find your root partition, Verify that the partition table is ok, then Write changes to the disk. Then quit fdisk, do a sync and try to boot from the rescue disk set but with your boot option of root=/dev/hda1 (or whatever partition your root partition is on). If that doesn't work, please post again but with detailed information of error messages and your configuration - the net is here to help. jcm -- I do not speak for the University of Queensland or the University Library J.McPherson@.mailbox.uq.edu.au | this space _not_ for rent. j.mcpherson@.library.uq.edu.au | remove erroneous char to reply properly
