Hi all,

I want to reinstall safely boot blocks as the installer does, how can
I do it? best from the CD-ROM
let me summarize the situation:
- I had 6.4 not booting correctly (partition boot size issue)
- I upgraded 6.5, and all works, boots fine
- actually it did not work, certain things make the kernel crash (but
can't report properly, I can't produce a dmesg, etc...... wifi makes a
kernel panic)
- after two or three panics the machine does not boot anymore, I did
run fsck
It looks early crashing, like reverting to the previous situation. I
wonder if the filesystem may corrupt that way?
I resorted in "upgrading" in place, from 6.5 to 6.5 again, this forced
reinstall.. and the laptop boots again fine :)
Smart installer! After all, overwriting what was just installed should
not do big harm.
