Hi, I have (well, more like had) a Thinkpad X20 Laptop dual booting between Redhat 9 & XP Pro . Everything was working fine, then last nite I accidentally lifted it off the docking base while in the middle of a X-windows/Gnome session doing some suring. It froze hard. I had no choice but to power cycle it & reboot. When it came back it gave me the Grub boot menu, I selected Linux again. When I got into the shell it started giving me disk errors. Then it froze up/became unresponsive before I could run an fsck. It started freaking out, I got 'bad magic number errors', i/o / disk errors, etc... I rebooted again, this time GRUB menu did not show up. Instead it give me some GRUB shell with just a GRUB command prompt "grub>" It says to hit TAB for info on commands & what not. I am stuck here. I don't have any boot disks with me & was wondering if there is anyway I can force GRUB to boot at least XP, or Linux preferably. Any ideas? I am new to Grub & Redhat 9 so forgive me if this is newbie'ish. I am stuck & out of town on biz travel with an incapacitated laptop now (not good). If anyone could offer some help with this I'd be very grateful...
