Hi,
since updating from 7 to 8, grub does not recognize my first two
partitions.
I have a T43 with onde HD and 6 Partitions, the first 2 are 2 seperated
XP Partitions:
title 1
hide (hd0,0)
unhide (hd0,1)
parttype (hd0,0) 0x83
parttype (hd0,1) 0x07
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1
title 2
hide (hd0,1)
unhide (hd0,0)
parttype (hd0,0) 0x07
parttype (hd0,1) 0x83
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
The hide and parttype trick hinders the booted XP to see the other XP.
Since Fedora 8 i become error 22 8unknown partition. When i set the
parttype correct, i was able to boot the xp while deleting the first 4
lines in grub.conf.
Has the syntax in grub changed?
