dual booting with FC4
I have two hard drives /dev/hda and /dev/hdb
/hda has windows on it I booted off my Fedora Core 4 DVD and did a install as to install it on /dev/hdb By default I chose to install the mbr on /dev/hda It loaded fine, but upon restarting it just goes to win. I changed my bios to boot off my second hard drive. Still it didnt do anything exept display "Error Loading Operating System" This procedure worked great with Fedora Core 3 and CentOS in the past. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated |
"By default I chose to install the mbr on /dev/hda
It loaded fine, but upon restarting it just goes to win." Use a rescue CD to boot into your new Fedora Core 4 system. Then edit your bootloader configuration file to straighten out the problem. If you are using lilo then the configuration file is /etc/lilo.conf. If you are using grub then the configuration file is /boot/grub/grub.conf. After you have the bootloader configuration file straightened out then reinstall the bootloader to the mbr. With lilo the command is: lilo With grub the command is: grub-install /dev/hda Here is a grub manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html Here is a lilo manual: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LILO.html -------------------------- Steve Stites |
