Grub boot issues
Hello,
Can someone please help me. I just installed Ubuntu Linux 4.10.
When I try and boot back into my Windows XP partition I get this error:
Booting 'Windows XP'
root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type unknown partition type 0x7
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader +1
The system just stops here. Until I reset it.
After I installed ubuntu I used apt-get to get the latest kernel:
2.6.8.1-5-386
Here is a list of my partition table:
Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 155061 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 50793 25599546 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 50794 110472 30078216 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda3 110473 153100 21484512 83 Linux
/dev/hda4 153101 155061 988344 83 Linux
The parition are all primary partitions ( I don't know if that was the correct thing to do ).
This is my grub version:
grub --version
grub (GNU GRUB 0.95)
This is my menu.1st file:
# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
# grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8),
# grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub
# and /usr/share/doc/grub-doc/.
## default num
# Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
# the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
#
# You can specify 'saved' instead of a number. In this case, the default entry
# is the entry saved with the command 'savedefault'.
default 4
## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 5
## hiddenmenu
# Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu)
#hiddenmenu
# Pretty colours
color black/yellow yellow/black
## password ['--md5'] passwd
# If used in the first section of a menu file, disable all interactive editing
# control (menu entry editor and command-line) and entries protected by the
# command 'lock'
# e.g. password topsecret
# password --md5 $1$gLhU0/$aW78kHK1QfV3P2b2znUoe/
# password topsecret
