After booting from the live DVD (assuming you are using a ubuntu based distro), open terminal and type sudo fdisk -l This should show your linux partitions. Find the Linux partition no. where you have your /root directory, or try sudo blkid (this will print your filesystem informations in detail) for example, if your linux partition (where your /root directory) is /dev/sda6, then try mounting the partition as below sudo mkdir /mnt/sda6 sudo mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/sda6 cd /mnt/sda6/ look for your 'root' directory sudo chmod 700 root HTH.
