[SLE] Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
Hi, I see the message in the subject field on my dual boot laptop. I can boot Suse 9.3 just fine (2.6.11.4-21.9-default), but cannot boot Windows XP. My /boot/grub/menu.lst file: # Modified by YaST2.

I can manually mount sda1, but can't mount sda2: kira:~ # mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/sda2 /test mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so I'd like to at least boot XP one more time to get some files off, and then I'm fine with reloading Windows. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Steve
