I seem to have hosed my system.
After rebuilding the kernel, I guess I ought to have run lilo again, for the umpteemth time, which I didn't bother doing.
Now when I try to boot, no matter which image I use, it just hangs up during boot. I booted up with knoppix and chroot'ed to my proper root directory. When I try to run lilo I am told that /dev/hda is not available or somesuch. This is in my lilo.conf
boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map
I have also noticed that /boot is empty, no map there!
So, the question is, what is the way to get the system to boot again.
Knoppix makes all file systems read only, which is why you can't fix anything. In order to remount rw you have to right click on the icon for the partition, and select the 'remount rw' option (or something simlar, i forget thee exact wording). after that you should be able to run lilo ok.
