Hi ,, I mentioned this last night, but noone really knew so I am asking again in the hope that someone can give me a tip here... I have a mandrake 7.2 system, and when I rebooted it last night, all sorts of things went wrong... First, GDM stopped workin, and I had to use failsafe to kill that at boot (along with all the other non essential servers...) Now, if I boot to any kernel, I either get blank screen, or i get the default linux console screen, with the penguin, and it asks for my login, which if I type it just goes to the next line and doesn't prompt for a password... I have alot of html and perl work on this machine that I hadn't yet backed up, so its imperrative that I get this distro, functional,,, I am of the feelin that its been some sort of File system corruption (all partitions are reiser except /boot) but from looking at the failsafe logs, there isn't much wrong with anything.. how I go about using the rescue disk to mount the hard drive and/or possibly to fsck it??? what is the command for fsck for reiserfs?? does anyone have any ideas?? also, why do I get the blank screen at login... (or a prompt that doesnt' ask for you passwd???) rgds Frank
