Hello All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Just so you know my setup is like this: |
| 4 |
/dev/sda1 /boot |
| 5 |
/dev/sda5 /swap |
| 6 |
/dev/sda6 / |
| 7 |
/dev/sda7/TV |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I don't have any thing for my sdb or hdd or fd0 as I have not at that |
| 10 |
point of trying to mount them. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
If there is a better way to do all of this I would greatly be greatful |
| 13 |
if some one could help me using ssh or even phone as this would be |
| 14 |
much much faster as the person that was helping me was using ssh to |
| 15 |
give me the information to do things, this is very hard as I was |
| 16 |
trying to give input from one screen and typeing on another and this |
| 17 |
is very hard when you have a vision and also a lang issue (I speak en |
| 18 |
but have a hard time spelling :-( ) |
| 19 |

Here is my files from /dev/sda1 |
| 21 |
|

file: device.map |
| 23 |
(hd0) /dev/hdd |
| 24 |
(hd1) /dev/sda |
| 25 |
(hd2) /dev/sdb |

Comment: As you can see I have # the line under the kernel as this was |
| 75 |
in the kernel line and I figure I would try what is in the kernel |
| 76 |
before I went to the above grub.conf file, same note about windows not |
| 77 |
loading also |
| 78 |
