Restoring disks (partitions) from images under X Window System
Selecting a disk (partition) image to restore when booted from a rescue CD
If you restore a system disk (partition), you might have to reactivate your boot manager. Please consult
your boot loader manual pages to find out the appropriate information. In case the system disk (partition)
is restored to identical hardware, the following steps would usually help:
Boot the computer from the Linux installation CD
Enter rescue mode
Issue the following commands:
#mkdir /mnt/tmp
#mount /dev/hdXY /mnt/tmp (/dev/hdXY is the device, corresponding to root partition)
#chroot /mnt/tmp
If /boot is a separate partition, mount it with
#mount /dev/hdXZ /boot (/dev/hdXZ is the device, corresponding to boot partition)
Issue a command according to your loader type:
LILO:
#/sbin/lilo
GRUB:
#/sbin/grub-install /device_name (/device_name is hd: hda, hdal, hda2, sdal, sda2 etc)
