Hello,
I am using lilo ina a pentium 3 Intellistation, I have
win 98 in /dev/sda1, partition id 6 (DOS 16-bit >=32M
linux native in /dev/sda2 id 83 (Linux native)
swap in /dev/sda3 id 82 (Linux swap)
WIN 95 FAT32(LBA) in /dev/sda4 id 0c, for storing windows data
After runnig a mpg in windows, my computer crashed
I cannot boot linux anymore. Lilo works, but linux does not finf
init.
Booting Using TOMsrtbt, and running fdisk:
VFS: Wrong blocksize on device 08:00
VFS: Wrong blocksize on device 08:00
LL_RW_BLOCK: DEVICE 08:00: only 512-char blocks implemented (1024)
Trying e2fsck
e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda2
I have really important data in that partition. So i will truly appreciate
any help in recovering ot.
Anyway, How It comes that win98 can crash linux only trying to run a
video?
Thanks,
Jesus
