Dual boot - unmountable boot volume
Hi ! - this is my first venture into Linux and I chose Suse - it installed (alongside Win XP) no problem however when I re-booted to check my Windows I get
'unmountable boot volume' (i managed to install the driver update part1 but no change and I'm sure the detail showed 'looking good') If you can help please consider that I know NOTHING of how to do things in Linux... yet! Thanks in advance. (My system is DELL inspiron 8600) |
Theres a few threads on this but anyway, a quick guide:
Make a boot disk in suse, if you dont know how search the forums or use 'apropos boot disk' or similar Change bios to boot from cd and boot xp cd > recovery console Type 'fixmbr', now you have windows and no linux. Now change the bios to the floppy, boot suse from the floppy and reconfigure the bootloader. |
