So heres what I did and what consequently happened… I have been running Fedora Core 6 on my new dell
machine for about 4 Months now happily. I had an old hard drive with windows xp
pro on that I wanted to add to my machine and have a dual booting system. I
assumed grub would pick this up and allow me to select which operating system I
wanted to use. Anyway here are the disks Sata – windows xp pro IDE ( with IDE to Sata converter plugged in) –
Fedora Core 6 < This has been working really well up until today. When I plug them both in together the system boots
directly into Windows. Swapped the sata plugs on the mother board to try and
get the Fedora to boot first and all I get is this…. GNU Grub Version 0.97 Minimal Bash GRUB> No I have been looking on the internet on how to get
this back and the following does not work for me. Root (hd0,0) Setup (hd0) Quit I tended to get error 15 a lot Any combination of locations in the HD brackets don’t
work. I have looked up the boot sector using Knoppix and that still doesn’t
work. Any ideas please before I pull what little hair I have
left out…. No virus found in this outgoing message. |
