Then I have installed openSUSE 12.2. After installation grub2 only provides a boot entry for my Windows 7, but noot for my XP. In case I install XP, then 7, then opensuse without using hidden partitions (for windows), the Windows 7 boot entry will boot the windows boot loader which offers to boot XP and 7. But when install XP, hide the partition, then windows 7 and then Linux, I can't boot XP anymore. When installing openSUSE 12.2 using grub (not grub2), then everything works as expected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install Windows XP (into 1st PArtition) 2.Install Windows 7 (into 2nd Partition) 3.Install openSUSE 12.2 using grub2 bootloader. Actual Results: Can't boot XP from grub2 boot menu Expected Results: It should be possible to boot openSUE 12.4, Windows XP and Windows 7 from the grub2 boot menu. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
