Hardware config: Dual Pentium III, Intel STL2 mainboard, one SCSI disk: Seagate Cheetah Ultra 160 on onboard SCSI controller Adaptec 7899
Partition table: I know that it's not quite right but it works. It's explained later on. [root@gsysnews /root]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2231 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 701 2231 12297757+ 83 Linux /dev/sda2 671 700 240975 82 Linux swap /dev/sda3 1 1 8001 83 Linux /dev/sda4 * 2 670 5373742+ 63 GNU HURD or SysV Partition table entries are not in disk order Software: Any Grub I tried does the same thing (0.5.96, 0.91, and 0.92 from today's CVS). Caldera OpenLinux 3.1 and Caldera OpenUNIX 8 Firstly, I have installed OpenUNIX 8. It created the third and fourth partitions. Then I have installed OpenLinux 3.1, and I used its partitioning tool to create /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2. [root@gsysnews /root]# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst timeout = 5 splashscreen = (hd0,2)/boot/message.col31 default = 0 title = OpenLinux 3.1 Server root = (hd0,2) kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-modular vga=274 quiet root=/dev/sda1 initrd = /boot/initrd-2.4.2.gz title = OpenUNIX 8 rootnoverify = (hd0,3) chainloader --force +1 makeactive [root@gsysnews /root]# cat /boot/grub/device.map (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd0) /dev/sda What is wrong: If I choose OpenUNIX 8, the computer reboots. But, it's not that simple. If I choose OpenUNIX 8 and press "e" to edit the section, then edit the line with rootnoverify = (hd0,3), but not changing it really, just edit it, say delete 3) and then write back 3), then press "b" to boot, and there it is, OpenUNIX is booting just fine. It is the only (stupid) way I've been able to boot it, by editing and writing back the same thing in its section. OpenLinux boots normally, by choosing it from the grub menu. _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
