When starting openSUSE 11.0 everything is fine, starting Windows 1 (XP) leads to the Windows bootloader, starting Windows 2 (Vista) brings up Booting 'windows 2' rootnoverify (hd0,5) chainloader (hd0,1)+1 BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart I hope this was helpful! -- 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.
