I have 2 hard drives, both western digital 40 gig each. I have Win XP on drive 1 NTFS. I installed FC 5 into drive 2, I chose Fedora as the default boot. I made sure that grub was installed onto /dev/hda <--- at least that's what it said during the installation.
When I boot up, it boots straight to windows XP, No grub.
I ran the FC5 rescue,
did the chroot /mnt/sysimage, and tried grub-install /dev/hda:
chroot /mnt/sysimage
grub-install /dev/hda
and got the following error:
I accepted the default settings in the installer because I wanted to give LVM a try. After installation, the PC only boots into Windows XP.
I ran the FC5 rescue, did the chroot /mnt/sysimage, and tried grub-install /dev/hda:
$ chroot /mnt/sysimage
$ grub-install /dev/hda
and got the following error:
/dev/hdb1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
df, on the chrooted system, gives:
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 mounted on /
/dev/hdb1 mounted on /boot
Any ideas?.
