| I am a dumb-ass, please kick my ass. -I currently was running my system from a 120GB WD. -Got my 80GB Maxtor replacement in the mail today. -Installed replacement. -Formatted it as the Primary Partition, when it should've been an extended. (IDIOT!) -Restarted computer -GRUB comes up in console rather than GUI...wont load kernel, cannot detect HDx# -Cannot boot from Win98 CD because it is too scratched up, and my friend has my WinXP CD's. I cannot believe that I selected Partition Magic to format it as Primary, omg... |

| KICK  feel better? WE all have done things like that, or had them done for us. I had XP reformat HD0 to ntfs because It had linux on HD0. I fixed that problem with a fdisk of xp Besided I hate the whay it looks! Now I keep much better backups too! |
