Restoring the backup data under X Window System

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)
