Mike, there are docs named HOWTO-????. There is also one about boot/root disks. I recommend you to boot from redhat instalation CD and after launch pres Alt-F2 (or F3,4... a can't remember) to get into free console with bash prompt. Then mount your hacked(TM) disk and try to repair. devik > When i boot linux from rescue disk, i get following message: > VFS: Insert root floppy disk to be loaded in RAM disk and press ENTER > Now how can i create a root disk...
