Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I've successfully set up Gentoo on the machine with ABIT IS7 motherboard |
| 4 |
and two SATA disks (integrated controller on ICH5 chipset, I guess). The |
| 5 |
first one is Seagate (Ch2 M. (master?) in BIOS) with WinXP, the second |
| 6 |
is Maxtor (Ch3 M. in BIOS) with Gentoo and GRUB in MBR. One problem is |
| 7 |
that I cannot boot in Windows while booting with GRUB. Here is my grub.conf: |
| 8 |
------------- |
| 9 |
default 0 |
| 10 |
timeout 10 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
title=Windows XP |
| 13 |
rootnoverify (hd1,0) |
| 14 |
makeactive |
| 15 |
chainloader +1 |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.12-r6 |
| 18 |
root (hd0,0) |
| 19 |
kernel /kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/sdb3 irqpoll |
| 20 |
------------- |
| 21 |
I get only |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Booting 'Windows XP' |
| 24 |
rootnoverify (hd1,0) |
| 25 |
makeactive |
| 26 |
chainloader +1 |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
and then machine hangs. So I have to set Seagate drive as a boot device |
| 29 |
in BIOS in order to boot Windows. How can I work it out? Should I |
| 30 |
install GRUB in the MBR of Windows disk? |
| 31 |
Another problem is that sometimes machine freezes or falls in kernel |
| 32 |
panic while booting Gentoo (usually on probing ATA devices). I suppose |
| 33 |
it may be due to buggy/broken hardware but it would be nice to find some |
| 34 |
solution or workaround. |
| 35 |

Thanks in advance, |
