A short while ago, during a power cut, my desktop machine failed. A power-up displayed symptoms consistent with a missing /boot partition; attempting to boot under the rescue CD seemed to confirm this when it did not mount the /boot partition. Booting under the F20 LiveUSB key allowed me to manually mount the partition; however, while I see files listed there some of them do not appear to be readable. I have seen the suggestion that all I need to do is to reinstall the appropriate kernel files in the right place: * Mount / via LiveUSB * Mount /boot under / (above) * "mount -bind" the current /proc directory to the HD /proc directory * "chroot" to the / directory mounted (above) * "yum install" of grub, kernel, and logos (all via http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/red-hat-fedora-linux/187043-howto-recover-boot-partition.html"; Is that what I'm looking to do, or is this dangerous? Are there alternate/better suggestions? -Don -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
