Dual boot MD9.1 / Win2k with a twist
Hello...
I have a dual boot issue i can't seam to fix. I've read everything I can find but nothing is the same as how I did my install. In short.... I removed my windows HD. Added blank HD and made 3 partitions - Fat32 - Swap - Ext3. Installed Mandrake 9.1 on the Ext3. Mandrake boots fine. I've re-added my win2k (NTFS) HD as a slave and am trying to dual boot the two now. One item i've just noticed is on boot up I get an error twice (same error) most of what is says is: mount: wrong fs type or bad option, bad superblock on dev/hda i've already been to ldp and the doc's the come standard with mandrake without success. all their examples are either dual boot on the same disk or dual boot while both disks are present during the install. Anyhelp would be great Dobie. here is my current lilo.conf: boot=/dev/hda map=/boot/map vga=normal default="linux" keytable=/boot/us.klt prompt nowarn timeout=100 message=/boot/message menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw image=/boot/vmlinuz label="linux" root=/dev/hda5 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="quiet devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=off" vga=788 read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label="linux-nonfb" root=/dev/hda5 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=mount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=off" read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label="failsafe" root=/dev/hda5 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="failsafe devfs=nomount hdd=ide-scsi acpi=off" read-only # other=/dev/hdb1 # label="Win2k" # table=/dev/hdb other=/dev/fd0 label="floppy" unsafe |
You've gotta install the ntfs file system drivers... they're on the mandrake disks or at http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/
