Re: linux hard drive failed, clicking on bootup


This dead disk is a disk from hell now. Why in the world does linux
rescue
NOT see the 'good' drive? Then I tried reloading fedora 6 and it says
'no valid devices found to load linux' or something like that.

New suggestions?
Jeff


Ok, sorry for last post, although I think it was strange. When I
powered
down and reboot, things were fine. That disk (apparently) put
something
in memory that seriously messed up the system. I *HOPE* all stays
well for a long time again! That bad disk is going in the trash!
