[olug] SUSE Linux 9.3 help

[Jake Churchill]

I don't remember if this works or not but have you tried the system 
restore option from the boot cd?  you may be able to manually mount 
drivers fromt here in single user mode.  As I recall there was a catch 
when my drive went out but I don't recall what it is.  I know there was 
data loss involved though.
