boot the knoppix cd/dvd with:
knoppix nofstab noswap
This will prevent knoppix from scanning the HD and will minimize access attempts.
Then try the fsck:
fsck /dev/hda2
Greetings.
I have a Debian Linux box that will not boot -- hangs after giving copyright notice on egrep .... anyway, I've booted the computer from my Knoppix CD and I can see all the files, so perhaps there's hope....
I was thinking of trying to run fsck to try to fix the problem ... does that make sense? if so, should i
umount /dev/hda2
or umount /mnt/hda2
before fsck /dev/hda2 ....
i'm SO confused ... anyone who can help me do this -- or provide alternative suggestions -- i'd really appreciate it.
