Re: windows lost after installing Linux

["Ankush Grover" <ankush174@xxxxxxxxx>]

Post us the output of:  fdisk -l

Then we can see what discs have what on them, to give more specific
advice.

hey,

 

 

Thanks everybody for your advice . As I don't have access to that machine as it is in some other city and running behind firewall with private ipaddress I can't access it.I have mailed my friend with 2 things

 

a)  output of fdisk -l

b)  Add these lines to  /etc/grub.conf

 title Windows 2000
 rootnoverify (hd0,0)
 chainloader +1
 

he told me that he did not overwrite the windows partition he can install the ntfs rpm and copy his important files to a linux partition if he is not able to boot into the windows.

 

 

Thanks & Regards
