I have a desktop with 2 drives (sda and sdb). sda contains windows XP. Opensuse 10.2 (default installation) is on sdb. During the installation I had to put grub on the root partition of sdb. The machines are under a lease and we are NOT allow to modify the MBR. So the question is, how can I boot my linux from the windows xp boot manager?
Followed the instructions given here: http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Booting_Linux_with_the_Windows_NT/2000/XP_Boot_Ma... but no luck. After selecting linux from the WinXP boot manager I end up with a text console shown the word GRUB.
It should work. I've done it before. Maybe the same basic instructions presented differently would prove successful: http://mrmazda.no-ip.com/install-doz-after.html -- " It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible."
