This file is the installer second stage. It is what gets loaded after a
boot disk tells the machine where to find the installation files. If
your system is running you don't need it.
Now I am a little confused how there can only be this single file on /.
How did you partition your harddrive? chances are at least /lib and
/etc are also on this partition.
can you send the output of mount?
