What I wanted was the following: /dev/hda1: SuSE8.1 Pro /dev/hda2: swap (used by RH and SuSE) /dev/hda5: shared fat32 partition (with all my files) /dev/hda6: boot partition (used by RH and SuSE)
This might be problematic... I would use separate "/boot" for each linux, or none at all.
/dev/hda7: red hat
Is there any way to get the system to boot?
Option "boot installed system" from the cd.
Have I made some dumb mistake (this is my first SuSE installation)?
Then you can reinstall, with more knowledge the second time :-) I don't remember now if you had to remove the CD for that first boot or not :-?
What type should the boot-partition be?
ext2: minimun size for a reiserfs is 100 Mb, and ext2 needs no modules. But if you formated that one (/boot), whatever redhat had in there would be destroyed. Check your /etc/fstab file, you might have a "noexec" there. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
