I think I blew away my grub (old redhat 4)
Folks
I think I did a major goof. I issued a command I found on a website without checking exactly what my config was (yep, I see you shaking your head now ... what ever your saying is perhaps true)
I ran:
mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
so, after trying to get my rhel to reboot this morning the expected happened ... nothing
well ... the grub prompt is all. I've tried using the redhat recover option to attempt to reload a boot loader on /dev/sda (the main system is apparently on /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00). But this just fails saying nothing will be done as I've not got any new modules to install.
so, have I wiped out my main system or have I got a chance to recover this?
