If you haven't replaced the installation kernel you can just use the bootdisk (rescue.bin) to boot. If you are using another kernel now you create a rescue disk with the "mkboot" program which comes in the debianutils package (that should already be installed). A debian rescue disk is nothing but a boot disk to whom you can pass a "root=/dev/hdX" parameter. -- Gonzalo Sainz-Trápaga (GomoX) GnuPG Fingerprint: A0AF 3BBF EB93 7EFE 6628 C5A5 F073 9442 6DE4 A497 Public Key: http://pgp.rediris.es:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6DE4A497
