Re: Missing mtab



Thanks again Narcis

I think I have a hardware issue. I was able to get Hurd installed and then I ran into more trouble.

Sorry for the noise, I will figure this out-Patrick

I don't know if Debian-live-Linux can damage installation with same action.

In the meanwhile, you can repeat (clean) installation from external
media and not choosing manual target for this boot manager, but choose
the partition where /boot is.

Hi Everyone

This is my first post here.

I tried to setup Hurd in the past but the CD did not boot. I downloaded
the new 2017 image and I ran it under Qemu last night. I absolutely love
this!

To the developers, thank you so much :)

I have a quick installation question.

I just installed to a laptop. During the installation, it seemed to have
found the disk, formatted it and installed various files.

Once it got to the part about grub, I think it offered a manual choice
as the first option and the other two were /dev/hd0 and /dev/hd2 or
something similar.

Now that I am booting up the installed system I am getting errors about
/dev/hd0s1 having errors and missing mtab. I am now at a rescue shell.

If anyone has any tips for me, that would be great-Patrick

P.S this is an old laptop that could have bad sectors. I was able to
install Minix 3 and Xubuntu on it but I am not 100% confident of it.
