Jacqui,
Use the Centos CD/DVD to run rescue mode. If not shown in the grub menu
on boot just enter
linux rescue
when you see the boot command ( or hit escape at the grub graphical boot
list)
On completion you should see your disc mounted under /mnt/sysimage and
boot under /mnt/sysimage/boot
Use
chroot /mnt/sysimage
if you want to make any changes to fix the problem.
John.
