Hello guys!
This, according to the main Linux forum page, is my latest problem with Linux again...
I messed around with some permission settings in order to get some programs working in Mandrake 9.1, and I remarked a line out instead of erasing it out. So now it won't boot into Mandrake 9.1, and I'm stuck with trying to access my /etc/security/console.perms file or something from a Windows XP partition. (I tried RFSTOOL, it only lists the files out, and besides it says it's read only).
I tried to boot from the cd installation drive, and I found out that it wouldn't let me access the hard drive! I would go to /dev/ and ls, I see tons of drives that don't even exist on my system and when I try to cd into hdb5, it just says it's not a directory! How else do I access it?
That said, a way to tell the CD that I want to access the hard drive root directory, not some lookalike root directory that has /bin, /mnt, /dev and none of my installation files, would be most welcome.
