Hi,
As a total newbie, I did a really stupid thing....I had one hard drive which was partitioned to 5 and I installed SuSE on one of drives after formatting....It was a good start....but, after I installed SuSE, I realized it was NOT installed as a dual booting like SuSE 8.0. In other words, my original OS, windows XP is gone and only linux booting is remained. Fortunately, I could keep my other drives and I could see there are three drives on the Desktop with a name '/windows/C' , '/windows/D' and 'windows/E'.... Is there anyway to keep these drives with Windows XP (dual booting)..?
I really need your help!!!
Thanks,
Try going into yast > system > bootloader to see if it will detect the windows partitions and update grub for you. Here's my grub/menu.1st from yast if it doesn't work... # Modified by YaST2.
