auji Posted December 29, 2003 Share Posted December 29, 2003 Hello,Hope I have the right forum... I am having a problem setting up GRUB for duel booting into W2k from Linux installed on another drive. I would like to boot W2k on hdb from grub installed on linux hda.The way it is setup now if I choose DOS from the GRUB screen I get this: "rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format" which is of course is just what it says in the /boot/grub.conf file, and it will not load. Below are my grub.conf and partition tables from fdisk.Can someone please give me a clue what I should do to be able to also boot into W2k on the second drive from grub? Thanks very much for any insight, auji#/etc/grub.confdefault=0timeout=10splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gztitle Red Hat Linux (2.4.20-8)root (hd0,0)kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 ro root=LABEL=/ hdc=ide-scsiinitrd /initrd-2.4.20-8.imgtitle DOSrootnoverify (hd1,1) ## this is what is returned on the screen whenchainloader +1 ## I choose to load DOS from the GRUB menueDevice Boot Start End Blocks Id System # Master drivehda1 * 1 10 80293+ 83 Linuxhda2 11 1057 8410027+ 83 Linuxhda3 1058 1122 522112+ 82 Linux swapDevice Boot Start End Blocks Id System # Slave drivehdb1 * 1 272 2056288+ 7 HPFS/NTFShdb2 273 1175 6826680 f Win95 Ext'd (LBA)hdb5 273 1175 6826648+ 7 HPFS/NTFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
