restoring grub
while experimenting with differnt distros i accidentally overwrote grub,
i can still boot suse but its akward how do i restore (or re install ) the default suse (10.2) grub configuaration? i tried just modifying the grub settings in yast but this diddnt appear to reinstall it, just modified the settings. any help would be appriciated |
Just goto Yast > System > Bootloader > Options > Propose New Configuration > Finish

i have just wiped off ubuntu (wose grub was causing the problem) and tried to install FC6 on that partition.
that left me with a totally unbootable system (as fedora is aving graphics problems and wont boot :( ) i managed to boot by using knoppix, copieing my menu.ls to a bit of paper (very low tech) then manually entering the stages at the grub command line (using fedora's grub) that has got me booted to suse to write this. will update progress after a reboot |
after trying what was suggested in the first few posts i ended up with a suse logoed bootloader with the fedora settings! in suse style with a fedora colour scheme!!
wierd, and still not bootable apart from going to text grub then hitting C and manually specifying the kerenel but i have found a restore MBR option in yast, mabie that will work... ***edit*** ... hmm nope... mabie copying menu.lst over woudl fix it. |

If it doesn't maybe I could help if you list your partitions, the filesystem on each, what's installed on each. Swerdna |
