Hi all,
I got a new 40 GB hdd the other day so that I could install openSUSE 10.3 on
it to use as my 'game' drive (I have a Crossover thing that just doesn't work
well with 11.3, unfortunately)
What I did, was I unplugged the 11.3 hdd from the MOBO, installed the new hdd,
plugged it in *on the SATA 3 plug (there's 4, 11.3 is on 1, the CD/DVD writer is
on 2 and now 10.3 on 3) and turned the system on and installed 10.3 on it.
Then, I plugged my 11.3 back in and started up the system and got into 11.3 to
put the new hdd in my GRUB.
I've chosen almost all the choices that GRUB had (using YaST) to put the new
hdd/10.3 in the bootup selection menu (where I now have the penguins permanently
walking back and forth, on purpose btw).
Nothing I've chosen works. When I get to the menu where I can select what to
do (11.3, 10.3, 11.3 failsafe, floppy), if I choose 10.3 it starts the GRUB for
it and then brings me right back to the choice menu again.
Is there something I'm missing? Should I install 10.3 again but leave my 11.3
plugged in and start up with the 10.3 in the cd/dvd writer and try it that way
and hope that install doesn't screw up enough that I can no longer get in 11.3?
JB
