Got an old Compaq Armada sitting here that some fool has attepted to install Linux onto and failed in a horrible manner. The filesystem is corrupt, it wants to fix it, but stalls when starting to do so.
This wouldnt be a problem except for it having been set to boot from HDD first in BIOS, whacking in a boot disk to just re-format the thing doesnt work.
Cant remember what key needs pressed to get into the BIOS on bootup, it just displays the Compaq slash screen until Linux starts to boot.
Anyone happen to know what it is?
