Have you already tried using the rescue portion off of the installation cd. Thats just my thought, but i would still wait for a tech solution.

"the rescue portion off " is software or pakage in OS.
And how to you ?

Enable CDROM booting in your BIOS, load the 1st Linux installation CD and reboot. When the installtion screen comes up, chose 'installation'. You should then get options (new install, update or other) -- chose 'other' and there should be a listing for 'repair'.
