help with grub command line

syxxzonz · 06-15-2004, 11:04 AM

I was installing Mandrake 9.2 on my computer. I created a partition for it since I have Windows 98 on it as well. In the process of installing the packages it said there were errors installing some of the packages so basically my system couldn't do anything. Now each time I reboot my system, I can't go anywhere except this grub command line. How can I fix this?

ya that happens when you get errors .. try using your install disk and do a rescue option or something .. im not quite sure what its called ..

Sounds like you didn't get a good burn or a bad download,search this site for fix mbr or fix boot to restore win boot loader.Was the md5sum right?

Yeah apparently when I was installing Linux, there were errors reading some of the packages. Do you think I can reinstall windows into my computer and fixing the problem?
