Hi! I'm using rescatux 7.01 (v5.6), the doubt I have is... The partion that I erased belongs to windows 10. So when I'm trying to rescue in the original position (801 MB partition) after selected, a new menu appear asking me to install the Window 10 MBR in the HDD (size of my HDD is 261 Gb). But I'm not quite sure of what do I've to do? If I want to restore the WINDOWS 10 MBR into the 801MB partiton, then why appears the menu that I've to select the 261Gb hard drive? I don't want to lose all my files in my HDD, if I select restore WINDOWS 10 MBR to the 261Gb after selected first the 801 MB partition, what would happen?
If you delete a Windows partition then there trying to recover Windows MBR is not going to help. Try to recover the deleted partition first using gpart (not gparted). Then you might need to recover Windows MBR if you have overwritten it with other bootloader.
I'm trying to repair an ubuntu 18.04 LTS where I can't start grub by holding down right shift. (I need grub to boot in rescue modes). I tried rescatux, it chose automode automatically (I think, didn't have time to read). In the beginning of the rescue it showed me some text, but now it has been a black screen and blinking cursor for 24 hours. I guess it's not repairing anything. Or is it? Can I pull out the USB and try with something else, or will I ruin something then?
Rescatux cannot help with a defective grub.cfg where it does not enable you to press shift. It just puts it in place if it was not there in the first place. As you black screen ... yeah, you can try ctrl+alt+del hotkey to reboot or just shutdown your computer. Also check 'Non free Rescatux' at: rescatux.sourceforge.net/repo/README.non-free.html .
