dual boot xp open suse not able to access xp
First of all I am a seventy year plus male, this should explane my dumb question.
I loaded open suse 11.1 dual boot windows xp it worked .On start up I had the choice of either system, but now I have no choice only open suse,as there are still some programs that I like to use in xp Ime stuck. Can anyone help? |
hi
boot into suse. open your file manager and navigate to /boot/grub/menu.lst....stands for list not first 1st post the contents of that file pls 2) leaping ahead...you need a menu item for windows or...unhide the hidden menu. if you see hidden menu without a # symbol in front of it...use root powers to add an # symbol so menu remains visible=unhidden eg if your menu.lst shows this ## hiddenmenu # Hides the menu by default (press ESC to see the menu) hiddenmenu make it #hiddenmenu 3) some distros have a nasty setting called savedefault it assumes you always go into menu item X and not want a choice again use root powers to add # in front of that setting to make it #savedefault good luck |
Thanks for help. In the end I reloaded openSUSE 11.1 and that solver the problem
