I don't know what is wrong with this configuration but I have try most of the suggestions on the web.
What I want is:
- to have the Windows loader boot and from there select either WINXP or Linux.
The config:
- WinXP and Fedora 1. - 2 HDs, one with NTFS for XP and a second one for Linux with the following partitions:
# df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hdb7 17512208 1840748 14781864 12% / /dev/hdb1 101086 6348 89519 7% /boot /dev/hdb2 17132844 38832 16223692 1% /home /dev/hdb3 3166632 4 3166628 1% /linuxp none 127776 0 127776 0% /dev/shm /dev/hdb5 1004024 61964 891056 7% /var
The grub.conf file:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# more /boot/grub/grub.conf
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Linux
root (hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl ro root=/dev/hdb7
initrd /initrd-2.4.22-1.2115.nptl.imgWhat I did:
- In the setup of fedora I choose not to install any loader.
- After booting with a floppy, I did: "grub-install /dev/hdb1" and created a grub.conf in /boot/grub. Using "dd", created a boot.lin file,
which I later copy to the first HD. Added a new entry in boot.ini to use
boot.lin when "linux" is selected.
The problem: Any time linux is selected I get a frozen "GRUB".
Any ideas?
