Xgl error in suse 10.1

Hi everyone,

i had installed suse 10.1 on my Host PC and it was working fine. I tried to appply 3D desktop effects by installing xgl and updating the display manager to Xgl instead of kdm. when i rebbot the system, the system did not boot, only a blank screen with the cursor blinking is coming. I tried to login in teh command prompt (using alt+ ctrl+f1), but could not. Nothing is working except the blank screen.

I lost the original SUSE 10.1 DVD also.i have suse 10.3 and i tried to upgrade from suse 10.1 to 10.3. but when i gave update , it did not detect the partitions on teh exeisting hard disk
.

Can anyone provide me any suggestion or solutions as to how to retrieve my stored data’s ?

with regards,
saravanan
