Hi, folks,
I wish to install NetBSD into the unused space (or I can pre-format it, if that
would help) on a drive which already has a UEFI partition and a partition on
which Gentoo is installed, and I want to keep Gentoo intact. I cannot find any
instructions or tutorials regarding installing on a disk that has another OS on
it, and all of my attempts have failed when I get to the point of accepting the
disk layout. It quickly fails with a complaint about not being able to access
/dev/dk* (and I'm trying to install on nvme).
Is there a tutorial or FAQ somewhere that I'm not finding, or does anyone have
any tips for how I might proceed?
Thanks much!
Jeff
Hi Jeff,
Just to save you some of the headache I had, once you finish the installation with the help of the NetBSD experts and overcome your problem, I'd like to share what I use in /etc/grub.d/40_custom in my
Debian GRUB configuration to boot NetBSD:
menuentry 'NetBSD-bootloader' {
insmod part_gpt
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set b8b1-17ed
chainloader /efi/boot/bootx64.efi
}
Regards,
Ramiro
