problem in fixing grub after windows reinstall
Hello All..
Mr Underscore ..
i read ur thread ::
==========================================
sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda2 /mnt/hda2
We should probably make sure the grub boot menu.lst file exists.
ls -l /mnt/hda2/boot/grub/menu.lst
You will chroot into the /mnt/hda2.
sudo chroot /mnt/hda2/ /bin/bash
If that is successful then then run grub-install & apply grub to the MBR.
grub-installer /dev/hda
If that is successful, type exit:
exit
==========================================
when i tried to mount is stated that the mount point is busy..
when i typed the "ls" command it showed the file...
when i chroot .. the shell crashed .. and typed many lines having " access denied.." or something like this .
..
so when i tried to grub-install .. it did not find anything..
please help me .. my grad project is on the knoppix .. and it dissapeared.. after XP re-install !
Thanks is advance..
yours ,
Tarek

If you are booting from a knoppix livecd, do _not_ click the icon on the desktop that indicates your knoppix partition.
Now open a terminal window and type the command: su
Once you press "enter" you are root.
Follow the previous instructions to reinstall grub, but, without the sudo command.
