I have partition as under in my pc :-
Windows XP in hda1(C:)(FAT32),
Storage in hda3(D:)(FAT32),
Windows ME in hda4(E:)(FAT32),
Linux /boot in hda7,
Linux in hda8,
swap partion in hda9.
For booting into Windows XP and ME, I have option to edit boot.ini and
select between two.
But to boot into Linux I need linux bootdisk as I have no bootloader(GRUB or
LILO) installed.
Now I want to have option during normal boot for XP, ME and Linux.
Some told me to do this :-
1. Run the following command (e.g. assuming /boot is /dev/hda7):
grub-install /dev/hda7
2. Run the following command: dd if=/dev/hda7 of=/mnt/hda1/linux.bin bs=512
count=1
3. Run and enter with notepad C:\boot.ini. Add the following line at the
last row : c:\linux.bin="Linux" .
4. Reboot and select the ``Linux'' option for linux boot and thats all.
After doing above, I found that when i select linux in boot menu it does
boot into linux only to show
Grub Version 0.92 (639K lower/260032K memory)
[Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
list commands completion. Anywhere
lese TAB lists the possible completion of a device/filename]
grub>_
Please someone help/tell me what to do next at that grub prompt.if I type
`boot' and enter, it gives message
error 8 : linux kernel must be loaded first.
Thanks
