Hello, I've started to prepare my machine for Linux multiboot. I've created a 20MB partition where I copied /boot/grub and /boot/boot from a working installation and installed the GRUB bootloader there. This one works fine. Next, I installed openSUSE 10.3 on an extended partition, using XFS. During the install, I told YaST that I wanted to install GRUB on the root partition. It went through without any issues. When I boot my machine, I'll get to the first GRUB menu, which is configured as;
default 0 timeout 5 title openSUSE 10.3 root (hd0,5) chainloader +1 But when I select this one, I get a GRUB error; Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format To make sure that there's no issues with the OS install, I added the following to my GRUB menu (the first one that pops up) title openSUSE 10.3 - Test root (hd0,5) kernel /boot/vmlinuz initrd /boot/initrd That menu option works fine. After booting the machine, I tried the following; Start grub as root Then, in the GRUB shell; setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0,5) (hd0,5) This gave me the following (note the warning, which is suppose to be non-fatal) Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5 (hd0,5)"... failed (this is not fatal) Running "embed /boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5 (hd0,5)"... failed (this is not fatal) Running "install --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0,5) /boot/grub/stage2 p /boot/grub/menu.lst "... succeeded Done. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, and how I can get this configuration to work? Thanks, Magnus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
