Hi,
I wanted to install Red hat on an old computer MMX (64MO RAM, 1G HD) and the installation failed so I had to reboot the computer (I wanted to use only Linux so I formatted the HD). After this operation it never get back to any boot. So I tried to install Knoppix. I made a floppy boot, put the CD in the drive and restart the somputer. averything went fine untill I got the following error :
Can't find knoppix filesystem, sorry.
dropping you to a very limited shell.
Press reset button to quit.
I tried to mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 and the result is as follow:
and got no such file or directory
I tried then the command mount alone and got
FAT Bogus cluster size 0
FAT Bogus cluster size 0
Kernel panic: VFS: unabled to mount root fs on 01:01.
I think my HD is not formatted or partitionned or that the previous install with the reboot blow it up.
Can someone help me to reconfigure my HD ? I have still access to the bios setup og the computer.
