Kernel panic -> IO Sync after using parted

[shea]

I booted to KNOPPIX, and used parted to resize/move/add partitions.
All my filesystems appear to be intact. I can mount/read/write them from
knoppix. I did not alter my / partition which contains my /boot directory.

Now when I try to reboot, I get a kernel panic after the image/kernel is
uncompressed. The message is something to do with Sync IO. I am going to
reboot to get the exact message, and will post it.

I am also going to try fsck -cfy /dev/hda1 before rebooting. Is there
anything else I should try?

I'll give an update as soon I get ubuntu up, or failing that, back into
knoppix.

Goodbye, going to reboot....

ok, I did the fsck, it found/fixed a couple errors, not not many (I think
3). Then I rebooted, now I get "OS not found". Should I rerun grub?
(mount hda1,chroot,rerun grub?) I am stuck now.

Rerun grub won't hurt anything.
Just try.
Good luck

I am trying to do that. I am in Knoppix right now.

# mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
# mount /dev/hda2 mnt/hda1/var
# mount /dev/hda5 mnt/hda1/tmp
# chroot /mnt/hda1 bash
# grub-install /dev/hda

But I get this error message: The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
