Title: GRUB config
Post by: TheEnigma on 27 May 2003, 08:43
Sorry if you dont allow Help requests  :D

I've installed RH9 on an old Windows Machine, just unplugged the Winblows drive, slapped in an old 6Gig and installed to that.

Now I have the bootstrap loader running, but I cant get the sodding thing to boot windows for my Games (damn clever GRUB  :D )

Anyone have a rough outline what I need to add to Grub.conf for windows?
The Lin Drive is HD 0,0 (Primary Master) and the Win Drive is on Secondary master with a CDROM on Secondary Slave!

I'm not sure if Windows is going to like being installed on anything but Primary Master, but you can give it a try.

Code: [Select]

Give that a try.  If it doesn't work, try switching the order of the statements or getting rid of/adding spaces.

Cheers for that - I know it WILL boot from Secondary Master as the only way I can access it atm, is unplugging the linux drive  :D

I'll try that now  (http://smile.gif)
