Having cleared out space on my Windows laptop for a Linux installation, I
finally installed CentOS 7 yesterday.

In the past (on earlier versions), the install program would notice the
Windows partition and ask if I wanted to be able to boot that, too. So I
would end up with Grub showing both booting options.

This time, however, I was not presented the option so I can no longer
boot Windows even though it is still there.

I thought this was no problem, thinking I could just add the correct code
to /boot/grub/grub.conf (I have that specific code saved on my system so
I could reference it).

Well, I logged in and looked in /boot/grub and found that grub.conf was
now named grub.cfg and that it was automatically generated from files
in /etc/grub.d! It is now MUCH more complicated than it used to be!

I tried inserting the code in what I thought was the right place, ran the
command to generate /boot/grub/grub.cfg, rebooted, and found that I did
not have the additional boot choice.

Does anyone know what is going on?

Thanks,


Craig
