I am a new Linux user and I am learning the basic things in order to be certified.
During my learning I run the command [Bfsck][/B] from root prompt with root. After answering the question with Yes I reboot my server.
Then I got following message and my server would not start.

Red Hat nash version 5.1.19.6 starting
sda: adduming drive cache: Write through
sda: adduming drive cache: Write through
mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'
setuproot: moving /dev failed: No such file or dirctory
setuproot: error mounting /proc: No such file or dirctory
setuproot: error munting /sys: No such file or dirctory
switchroot: mont failde: No such file or dirctory
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

I tried to solve with grub, root (hd0:0) and setup (hd0) but the problem would not solve.

My question is therfore how can I solve this problem. reinstalling linux is not my option.

Hi.

What does '[Bfsck][/b]' mean? Could you post the exact command you used?
It sounds like you may have trashed the root filesystem somehow.

sorry for the mis speling it is the command fsck

Well, I'm not too sure what's happened, but I think your best bet would be to boot from the install CDs and do a 'repair' from the menu. That should (hopefully) get the machine bootable again.
