Hello friend
My Company employee run following command
rm -rf /*
after word when he reboot the system
he got
GRUB>
I told him you delete all files under root b'coz / under linux is root
Is it right or wrong please tell me
i check his history file i.e. .bashrc_hisory
I check this by running knoppix linux i.e. on cd
i give the following command
mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/newdir
Is there any solution to boot the system when we get
GRUB> like option
Regards
Linux User

you have deleted everything, now grub don't know that where to boot , where is the kernel !its config files are also deleted. You have only MBR records left hence you are seeing grub prompt.
So I hope you got the anwer.

First of all why did you give a newbie in ur organization root access?
And grub is installed in stages one on mbr and the other in the /boot/grub which is now deleted.
