Hi. My name is Karl Mortensen. I installed Red Hat 8 Saturday morning at the installfest. It worked fine, then died. It killed my XP partition AND my Linux partition.
I've messed with it for TWO DAYS now, and am exceedingly frustrated. So here's where I'm at: I've made a partition with FDISK, and I can see the data and FTP it out to my roomate's comp (prepatory for A FULL FORMAT), but only a single .tar file, because some guy set it up for me. I'm trying to mount my hard drive in addition to the temp one he set up (that had the .tar file), but nothin's going. This is what I'm trying to do: mount /dev/hda1 -t NTFS /mnt/karl It's the NTFS thing it doesn't like. It says Failed: no such device. I've created the directory karl, and I can mount his temp drive to it, but I can't mount my NTFS one to it. I think it's a matter of the file system I'm trying to mount. Also, the file system that the temp one says is in use if I do fdisk -l is HPFS/NTFS. I would really like to be able to get my data off. What can I do?
