Ihave Windows 7 installed and I recently installed Megeia 2. My problem is I can not boot into Windows. I installed Grub and when I select Windows it fails to boot. I wentand looked at each partition and this is what is stated.
sda1 label: Dell Utility, drive letter C: (just a guess) FS: FAT16
sda2 label: Recovery, FS: NTFS-3G, Partition booted by default for MS-DOS boot not for lilo, drive letter D: (just a guess).
sda3 mount point:/media/windows, drive letter E (just a guess) FS:NTFS-3G mounted.
How can I get sda3 to be booted by default for MS-DOS?
Magia 2 runs grub 1, ( grub legacy ). Go to the directory /boot/grub/ there will be a file there called menu.lst. Copy and paste it here.
Where did you install grub to? MBR, or some partition?
It would help if you open a konsole, and as root run the command 'fdisk -l' ( without quotes. Copy and paste the output. That will tell us what partitions you have, FS type, etc.
