1 Hello All,
2
3 here is my grub.conf file:
4 # Boot automatically after 30 secs.
5 timeout 20
6
7 # By default, boot the first entry.
8 default 0
9
10 # For booting Gentoo-Linux
11 title Gentoo-Linux Ver 2.6.15 r7
12 root (hd0,0)
13 kernel /boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.15-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/ram0
14 init=linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/sda6 udev
15 initrd /boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86_64-2.6.15-gentoo-r7
16
17 # For booting Windows XP
18 title Windows XP Home Eition
19 map (hd1) (hd0)
20 rootnoverify (hd0,0)
21 makeactive
22 chainloader +1
23
24 When windows is pick it shows the commands on the screen and then
25 freeze? What I think is happening is that the map is not working
26 write. if I don't have map it does the same thing. What is wrong
27 with this?
28
29 My windows is on a SATA and so is't my Gentoo, windows is one /dev/sdb
30 and gentoo is one /dev/sda
31
32 What could be wrong here?
33
34 Sincerely,
35 Christopher
