grub help.

(1/2) > >>

bayne:
my friend is having problems.  grub messed up and he wants to know if there is a way he can reinstall it with out having to reinstall red hat.  i'd be grateful for any help.

slave:
Boot using your Red Hat installation cd/rescue disk
at the prompt type "linux rescue"

when you get a command line type:

/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda (or whatever hard disk contains your master boot record)

bayne:
he had a "not found error" and he tried all hda numbers.  (hdb1, hdb1, hdb01, etc)

slave:
Oh sorry, you may need to chmod to your installation directory and mount your /boot partition too (it says this somewhere when you do a rescue)

Sorry if I mislead you.

bayne:
could you please tell how to do that.  the both of us are linux n00bs.  sorry.
