You booted with the label Win Xp Home (the recovery section) and it tried to recover your laptop to factory default settings and rewrote the MBR. Apparently it seems like the rewriting didn't go very well as it should have just booted into Windows without giving you any prompt for Grub. Now I wonder if the Windows partition is still intact and available to you. Yes its intact and am writing to you from the windows section. I have reinstalled but am not sure this is stable after reinstall i tried the first option and it went into to recovery mode - and since i did not have the recovery cd's it got stuck (froze) so was forced to poweroff , I rebooted after that a couple of times and things seem ok now. Wonder if there is a need to poweroff after the first install boot. ??

If you expect ready made answers instead of simple google then you are in for disappointment.

Re: [ilugd] how to configure
On Tuesday 13 Jun 2006 2:54 am, Varun Mittal [EMAIL PROTECTED] cobbled together some glyphs to say: how can I configure ppp on fedora 5 I would suggest you to use wvdial for ppp. To configure it, follow the following steps: 1) Open a terminal. 2) Become root by running 'su -' 3) Type wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and press enter. It should detect your modem. 4) Type 'export DISPLAY=:0' and press enter. In another terminal, without becoming root, type 'xhost +', press enter and press CTRL-D to exit the terminal. 5) Go back to the original terminal and type 'gvim /etc/wvdial.conf' and press enter. Alternatively, instead of step 4 and 5, you can use a terminal editor if you want. 6) Edit the file and replace the place-holders with the username, password and phone number. Save and exit. 7) Type 'gvim /etc/sudoers' (I know some might flame me telling me to use 'visudo' instead, but those who are new to Linux aren't really at ease with vi. Moreover, I've checked the following line) and press enter. At the end of the file, add the following line: your-username ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/wvdial Replace your-username with your username. 8) Press CTRL-D to exit the terminal 9) Open any editor and paste the following into it: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- # KDE Config File [KDE Desktop Entry] Comment[C]=Connect to the internet through PPP SwallowExec= SwallowTitle= BinaryPattern= Name=wvDial MimeType= Exec=sudo /usr/bin/wvdial Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/kppp.png TerminalOptions= Path= Type=Application Terminal=1 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Save it as wvDial.kdelnk on the Desktop. Now, whenever you want to connect to the internet, just double-click the wvDial icon on the desktop. -- Silver MoonDragon I was given the choice between sanity and creativity.
