Access Solrais OS from Linux GRUB
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ess-ce-602130/
I have installed 3 OSs on my laptop (Win2003, FC7, Solaris Express CE),I used to use Linux grub to boot these 3 OSs without any problem. Linux OS screwed up for some reasons, I reinstalled linux OS without touching windows nor solrais, as a result I have to edit the Linux grub by adding the same 3 lines that were there before reinstalling linux,: Code:
title Sun Solaris GRUB Boot Loader I tried below as well Code:
title Sun Solaris GRUB Boot Loader At this stage, I do not like to use Solaris's grub to boot linux OS. http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/features...oot_laptop.jsp Quote:

Can you post your partition table ? ("fdisk -l" output)
|
Quote:
Code:
fdisk -l |
Your primary partitions 3 and 4 seem to have been reordered. That may explain the problem.
|
I suggest make your system more simple
part 1 primary ntfs part 2 primary solaris part 3 linux part 4 linux swap if fat32 was for sharing of ms and linux..make part 1 available to be readable and or writeable in your linux fstab....writeable is now possible with ntfs-3g |

according to the above thread the origin partition table was like this Code:
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes Now I can boot Windows and Linux by using Linux grub, but not Solaris |
Under Linux fdisk .dev/sda and select the expert options (x) and then select fix partition order f), the order of the partition tables in like below.
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk -l Code:
Disk /dev/sda: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytes |

I have never installed solaris but I know you can chainload to solaris or alternatively use grub hide commands to hide partitions after partition 2? |
After fixing the partition order, did you try
Code:
rootnoverify (hd0,2) |
