I appreciate very much if any one can help me on this. thank you so much in advance.> I posted the above message which I received confirmation but no answer yet. Am I to assume that there is no know solution to my problem? If such is the case, I will appreciate if some body will let me know thus I proceed with a new reinstallation. I was hoppening to some how with your help to recover the data files.
Your root partition setting is busted.Boot the rescue disk again. When you drop into the rescue shell, run the "mount" command. Look at the device path that /mnt/sysimage is mounted under. Edit grub.conf and put that path for the "root" option.
Since you can boot the rescue disk and access your partition, your data can be recovered. It's just a matter of figuring out the correct boot setting.
