You said this had RAID5: what's the o/p of cat /proc/mdstat?\
Its a hardware raid5 perc. I cannot mount the boot partition sda1. sda3 mounts fine this is where the OS is. What to do?
What kind of error do you get when you try to mount sda1? Is it something fsck will fix? You need to load the kernel and initrd from there.
#mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/myboot mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
I have nothing in my boot directory. Will I have to reload the kernel and grub?
ran fsck got Superblock has an invalid ext3 journal (inode 8). Clear<y>?
Should I select Y? Thanks Dan
