Hello,
I have installed a Windows XP on another partition than my FC5. The system boot
on Windows. I'm unable to do a dual-boot FC5 and XP.
The steps followed are below:
1. Boot from DVD, then on the prompt: linux rescue;
2. from the rescue mode prompt: chroot /mnt/sysimage;
3. then: /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda.
So, occurs an error about stage1 incomplete or something like that.
Any ideas, please?
TIA,
Vinicius.
You might try this instead of the grub-install. Let us assume that your
linux is on partition 2.
grub
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> root (hd0,1)
grub> quit
then reboot
The 1 in the root command refers to partition 2 since grub numbers
partitions starting at 0.
