Hi All, I just installed subject but find it will not boot unless the insstall dvd is in the drive and I point to HD install. The machine will not boot otherwise. My hd setup is as follows: quartz:~ # fdisk -c -u -l Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 81 heads, 63 sectors/track, 382818 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000de2de Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 2048 1953525167 976761560 83 Linux Disk /dev/sdb: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 81 heads, 63 sectors/track, 382818 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x000ef674 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 2048 1953525167 976761560 83 Linux Disk /dev/sdc: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0000d7b1 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdc1 * 2048 206847 102400 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sdc2 206848 1953521663 976657408 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT Disk /dev/sdd: 60.0 GB, 60022480896 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7297 cylinders, total 117231408 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0003f878 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdd1 * 2048 108843007 54420480 83 Linux /dev/sdd2 108843008 117229567 4193280 82 Linux swap / Solaris quartz:~ # This is a dual boot machine with Win7 and opensuse 12.2.
