GRUB problem

hfawzy · 04-11-2003, 02:10 AM

Hi there,
I use RH 8 and GRUB. I have Windows 98 on hda and RH on hdb, and I want to multiboot with Windows.
So I put these line to my /boot/grub/menu.lst file :

Code:

title Windows
        root (hd0,0)
        chainloader +1
        boot

But when I try to start Windows, it prints this:

Quote:

Booting 'Windows'
root (hd0,0)
Filesystem is fat, partition type 0xb
chainloader +1
boot
Invalid system disk
Replace the disk, then press any key

How can I solve this problem?
Thank you

Take out the "boot" line. The boot command is only needed when entering Grub commands from the command line.

Did you edit /boot/grub/menu.lst ? I'm not sure what this is a symlink too but you should change your /boot/grub/grub.conf instead.

place 'rootnoverify (hd0,0)' instead of 'root (hd0,0)'
