is there a way to access /home of an irreparable ubuntu installation? i used the ubuntu installation cd as a rescue disc but i could not cd to or change permissions of /home with it. |
hmm, to save your data........boot up with a LiveCD like knoppix and move your files around.......then fix the ubuntu partition/s
<edit/> your rescue disk should be able to mount/unmount partitions with/without read/write permissions.........I have done this with CD#2 of Slackware to fix my screw ups....... |

2. i could navigate through the directories, except /home. neither "cd /home" on /TempDir or "chmod 777 home" worked. is this a permissions issue? if it is, i am under the impression that i should be able to do both because running the installation cd in rescue mode is said to come with root privileges. or is my system just pretty screwed up? 3. i tried slackware's boot disk (bare.i) to mount/access /dev/hda4. Among the errors printed are as follows: Warning: unable to open an initial console. Kernel panic: no init found. Try passing init=options to kernel. |
