Add Mandriva to Boot Loader 3 years 21 weeks ago

Hello,

I installed Mandriva on /dev/sda5 and Fedora on /dev/sda3. Boot loader in the MBR is of Fedora12. It replaced the Mandriva bootloader that was there in the MBR. How can I boot Mandriva through Fedora's boot loader. The grub.conf file of my machine looks like this Quote:

# grub.conf generated by anaconda #

NTLDR is missing 3 years 34 weeks ago

I've installed Fedora 11 on top of Windows 7, and at startup, when I select Windows 7 to boot to, I get a message saying:

Code: NTLDR is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to Restart Currently, I have my boot layout setup so that when my computer starts I go into grub. The content of my /boot/grub/menu.lst file looks like this:

hi all.. im new to linux...and here is what happened.

boot loader problem 3 years 17 weeks ago

hi everyone I have problem with boot menu, when I install fedora12 on my laptop, it just gave me 2 possiblity.. 1- fedora 12 2- other

when I try on other it load recovery (not windows)

note: my windows is vista home basic, and even I try on editing chainloader,

this is /boot/grub/menu.lst

Hi On my system i have win xp and Fedora 12 installed. My Grub menu used to be 1. Fedora 12 2. Windows Xp As normally i had Fedora and Windows. Now after an update it shows, 1. now it shows:

Code: hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686)         root (hd0,5)

I have the following grub.conf

Code: default=0 timeout=5 splashimage=(hd0,13)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.31.1-56.fc12.x86_64)         root (hd0,13)

I'm sure there is a thread on this somewhere, but after looking though the first 100+ search results, I can't seem to find it.

After a kernel update today, I noticed that new kernels are not being added to my grub menu.lst (so consequently, I was running an older kernel).

How is the kernel loaded? 11 weeks 4 days ago

I am trying to understand the Linux boot process, and after reading quite some amount of documentation there is one point that I still can't seem to understand.

So the basicis is BIOS -> Grub MBR -> Grub CONF -> Kernel ...

with a grub conf that can look like this

title CentOS (2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.i686) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-358.2.1.el6.i686 ro root=/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_r
