I have a BIG problem!! My 2000 server will not boot - keeps hanging at startup screen. I´we tried every mode in the F8 option screen. The big broblem is that i can´t get in to the Console. It hangs just before password question. Cannot do repair either.
Try using your install CD and you will get to a screen that asks if you want to repair the existing system or do a new install.
