Back
So..
Last night I added a recently purchased Dell Powervault 210s to my
Dell 2450 running Fedora 5.
As I browsed the uninitialized drives on the PowerVault, I
accidentally/on purpose initialized a disk with a linux boot partition.
It's just my tinkering habit.
Now my system boots to grub> (that's it). Certainly I hosed
my Grub boot.
Where i'm at..
I found that there were two bootable partitions on the machine.
One on sda1, and one on sdb1. I toggled the boot flag on sdb1 (off)
because I only run Linux and sda1 is the logical boot.
(Is the above correct thinking). I can always restore the flag.
I have booted my machine using the Fedora cd and typee "linux rescue".
This found my install and I have chosen to "chroot /mnt/sysimage".
I can see all my data.
When I tried "grub-install /dev/sda", I get the following.
"/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly"
What's my next step (maybe I should get into landscaping) ?
