super-newbie question about Recovery CD
 
Hello

I have to "boot into my Recovery CD" so that I can manually mount my file system (/dev/hda5 and /dev/hda7).

I have Mandrake Multi-network-firewall (bash shell only). I purchased the product and it has an install CD.

Is the install CD the same as the recovery CD? If it isn't, how can I get/make a recovery CD so that I can mount my hard drive manually. Or, can I just boot into failsafe mode and mount my hard disk?

Thanks

:study:

Yes, the recovery CD is the same as the install CD. When the boot prompt displays on the monitor type in rescue. The displayed text shows all options.
