how to rescue linux
hello,
I have installed linux first then installed the windows .This makes the unable to run the linux.So please give me idea how to rescue the linux. |
If Windows did not overwrite the Linux partitions ... then you need to boot into your Linux enviro and reinstall Grub or Lilo whatever you were using.
In the future the rule is Windows first always, then Linux. Windows does not play well with others .... |

I am not sure what distro you installed? I am assuming Redhat/Fedora Boot your system with the first Install CD. At the Boot: prompt, type linux rescue Follow the instructions. When you are dropped at the # prompt, type chroot /mnt/sysimage (all this info is given to you during rescue... read the screens carefully). now type grub-install /dev/hda (again I am assuming it is your first disk) exit and reboot. |
