hi guys
soon as im still searching for an answer i finished here...
i will give u some fdisk info:
(sorry guys, im using the german version, but i think u know where what stands...)
Code:
Platte /dev/hda: 82.3 GByte, 82348277760 Byte
16 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spuren, 159560 Zylinder
Einheiten = Zylinder von 1008 * 512 = 516096 Bytes
Gerät Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 20321 10241406 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 20321 159551 70171920 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)

/dev/hda6 143295 157518 7168864+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda7 157519 159550 1024096+ 82 Linux Swap
Platte /dev/hdb: 120.0 GByte, 120034123776 Byte
255 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spuren, 14593 Zylinder
Einheiten = Zylinder von 16065 * 512 = 8225280 Bytes

/dev/hdb1 * 2 14593 117210240 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hdb5 2 14593 117210208+ b W95 FAT32
So... lets go on. i have as you can see 2 hdds, one IBM 80GB and one WD 120...
the 120 is using for filestorage only... the other is the place für win/progs/temp and games (im only 16 so i think thats normal )
i had 2 partitions on my WINXP, one 10GB for win, progs and one 70GB for "games"...
i cutted one part of the games partition (8GB... my brother is quite good in linux but has no time for me... he said ca. 7GB linux and 1GB swap)
so now im using Fedora Core 2 Test 3 and am getting confused x_X
second, i have read a lot with some tweaks and tricky things here ...
but nothing helped, so i thought i start my own thread for my own specific problem...

as you can see i have 3 kernels... (wanted to be always on the newsest, but couldnt only download 327 sources for my nvidia-driver-installing-trys... wont work also but this later)
but when i choose my windows, it doesnt do anything... i also installed grub through
Code:
grub-install /dev/hda
new on my MBR but it soon wont work :/
also ive tested this little map(0,1) etc trick, but that will give me an error13 : unkown format or something...
i used hd(0,0) cause i think this means first partition on first harddrive...
soon i only want to get my windows work again because linux is soon foreign for me its like throwing a child in a deep deep hole...
-------------------------------------------------
when im booting up it shows me this:
code: Booting 'Windows'
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
then it wont do anything...
i thought through my fdsik seeing that hda1 @ ntfs there is a way to boot it... because i want my good old home win
and i though hd(0,0) means first partition on first device...
-------------------------------------------------------------
im have now tested everything i could find... but nothing worked...
soon i saw that my firs hdd has some funny partitions
first hda1 @ NTFS @ WIN XP @ 10GB
second hda2 @ FAT32 "ext" @ games & linux @ 70GB
- hda5 @ FAT32 @ games @ 60GB
- hda6 @ Linux @ Linux @ 7GB
- hda7 @ Linux swap @ linux swap @ 1GB
... but why does that 2nd partition interfere with the first one? or how could i damaged my win xp?
sry for my few posts but it must go fast cause i have to work for school x_X... for fast help you can get me on gaim @ 155731653 ICQ
edit:
Code:
[root@greyhound root]# mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /windows/C/
mount: Falscher Dateisystemtyp, ungültige Optionen, der
»Superblock« von /dev/hda2 ist beschädigt oder es sind
zu viele Dateisysteme eingehängt
(aren't you trying to mount an extended partition,
instead of some logical partition inside?)
[root@greyhound root]# mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /windows/C/
