Thanks to the help of folks on this forum, I now have my Centos 4
box up and working, however I do have a question on how the repair
actually worked.
<br>
<br>
After starting the Linux Repair, the process "found my installed
Linux". Some of you will remember that I had accidentally erased
the /boot and /boot/grub directories, but I had most of the files
saved (not the symbolic links) and put them back into the
directories <b class="moz-txt-star"><span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>and<span
class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b> I did run a rpm reinstall.
<br>
<br>
When Linux Repair "found the installed Linux", did it create a new
/boot and /boot/grub <b class="moz-txt-star"><span
class="moz-txt-tag">*</span>or<span class="moz-txt-tag">*</span></b>
did it just use what I had put there?
<br>
<br>
[I am now downloading Centos 5.5 which I'll install on a new drive
and then face the challenges of moving my backup data to the new OS]
