[NCLUG] KRUD 7.2 Boot Failure

[Scott G. Brauer]

At least I know my first mistake.  I wrote some scripts to update files and 
I bet I had the kernel packages in the directory it was using as a holding 
pen.  I won't know until I can get into the machine but I imagine that is a 
pretty safe bet.

I'm still trying to get the boot disk to work.  I'm using Norton Disk 
Doctor now in an attempt to fix the disk.  Then I will move on and check 
the system based on the suggestions posted.

I'll keep you updated.  Thanks for the help.
