This boot stanza looks a bit weird - the 2nd and 3rd lines conventionally start with whitespace (a tab), but can't see anything in the docs that says it is REQUIRED, and don't want to reboot to find out empirically right now. The missing "makeactive" line suggested earlier in the thread (see also "grub info") is more likely to be the problem.

here is the ouput of df command

Fdisk will follow as he didn't find the command and it was too late last night.........anyway he doesn't remember any deletion of files or bad crash....
Yes, he could boot both Fedora and Windows.



Check to see if /dev/hda1 is active when you get the fdisk output. IIRC some versions of Windoze get unhappy if they are not the active partition. If the behavior changed when you did the Fedora upgrade, that may be a clue.

Results of

[visto@localhost visto]$ /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/hda
Impossibile aprire /dev/hda (i.e. Impossible to open /dev/hda translated from Italian..)
[visto@localhost visto]$


What does it mean???

Tnx
