i had an issue like this however i was not dual booting. i did all the defaults and when disc 1 was done and it rebooted, i got the message that there was no operating system found. did another reinstall and clicked the expert tab to modify the boot loader. it was installing grub to hda2, i told it to install to MBR of hda and it worked. is that the same bug that will be fixed in beta 2? -----Original Message----- From: jdd Sent: Aug 11, 2005 2:43 PM To: opensuse@opensuse.org Subject: Re: [opensuse] Open Suse beta 1 grub no boot windows xp partition houghi wrote:

I�m installing opensuse beta1 for the 4 cds, the install process are ok, but grub no boot to mi windows xp, the menu are in grub but not are functional.

A known bug and should be solved in the next version: http://opensuse.org/index.php/Bugs:most_annoying_bugs After installation, Windows dual boot not set up correctly in GRUB Bug #102703, solved for beta2

and the solution (from the bug page): Windows does not boot. If I change it to the old way (as documented in grub.info) it works fine: title Windows rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 jdd -- pour m'�crire, aller sur: http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.net http://arvamip.free.fr --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-help@opensuse.org
