Technical blunders

A day of blunders...Today a saturday was supposed to be at home ..but due to some work available i was asked to come to the office...I woke up late and was in a dilemma whether to come or not ..and picked up the 4 FC4 cd's and was on the way to the office...



It all began with deleting the logical drives of Red hat 9.0...and when i rebooted the laptop it was bootin in grub command prompt..i forced it to boot from the cd..but it dint ..i was wonderin why this was happenin..got over the net to determine as wht command to give to boot in windows..but in vain...Finally after some tryin ..i calld up bala and askd him....He gave me one simple command...ie grub>chainloader --force(hd0,0)+1 grub>boot and vola..windows got booted ..... Now it was time to check the cd..i saw as somethin was fishy with the cd...and again calld up bala..askin whether iso files can be used for bootin...


The blunder is tht i had copied the iso files as data and not the images tht r required for bootin up...Man day of blunders and here i am doin nothin but simply wastin time in office..its time to go home and relax ..and come pumped up on monday to install it once again ..lotta learnins to do....Me bein a linux newbie ..gotta get used to it...
