Linux Grub and Windows 7
I know that there are many of these thread types floating around and I've been searching, but have yet to find a solution that solves my particular problem.
When I hit grub and choose to launch windows, it gives me a "boot manager is missing" error, but if I just manually boot from my windows drive, it works fine. So my only issue is when the grub is in control of the boot.
From other posts, I gather this information will help more experienced Linux users help me pin this down.

============================= Boot Info Summary: ===============================
=> Testdisk is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda.
=> Grub Legacy0.97 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdb and looks at sector
543338 on boot drive #1 for the stage2 file. A stage2 file is at this
location on /dev/sdb. Stage2 looks on partition #1 for /grub/grub.conf..
=> Grub Legacy is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdc and looks at sector
461089280 on boot drive #3 for the stage2 file, but no stage2 files can be
found at this location..
=> Windows is installed in the MBR of /dev/sdd.

I doubt this matters but I'm working on Fedora 14 64bit.
Any help would be super appreciated. I have have attempted to use the solution from
this thread, but to no avail. Also attempted, in the grub.conf, to point windows at (hd1,1) which was another solution in a thread I can't seem to find. thanks!
As a side note. I posted this in Linux newbie because I am quite new to developing and working with the underpinnings of Linux. |
