BUSYBOX!
Bah! I dual boot Vista and Hardy and what first happened was I shut down Vista and went into Ubuntu. I got to the GDM and logged in; whilst logging in I got the error that says I have been logged in for less than 10 seconds and that there was a problem. When it tried to go back to GDM I got the Xserver blue screen of fail. I turned my computer off (I don't remember if it was through the power button or a command). I turned it and once GRUB selected my 24-18 kernel to boot it gave me error 2: Bad file or Directory. I reboot and changed GRUB to use the 24-17 kernel and after it was done "waiting for resume device" it dropped me to a busybox.
I looked at the kernels (/boot/) under Vista and found that the 24-18 kernels had nothing in them. As in Vista said that they took up 0KB of space.
I went into a openSUSE live cd to do a fsck and it found that just about every inode had something wrong with it; the check took at least 50 min and I had to tape down the "Y" button. ;-)
I rebooted and now when I tried the 24-18 kernel I got error 15: Bad file. The kernel still has nothing in it and the other kernels I have (24-17, and 24-16) both drop to busyboxes.
What to do!?
Can I get on a live CD and just replace some files?
