Dear ppl,
I have dual boot in my comp. FC4,Win XP. I had some
problem with my XP. So i wanted to repair it. So i
tried to boot from the windows CD. But unfortunately
it didnt work.
I got this problem,
Press any key to boot from CD...
then,
Setup is checking your hardware configuration....
After this i didnt get the usual blue screen where it
asks to install XP...but got a blank screen. But this
windows cd worked fine in my friends' comps. And Other
Live cds like (Ubuntu live cd) works fine in my comp.
So what i did was i made my hard disk a slave in my
friends comp..and then reinstalled XP in my C:\. now i
brought it here and connected.
But i get an error if get into windows XP in the grub
loader.
here are my grub.conf and df -h outputs
grub.conf:
title Fedora Core 4
root (hd0,7)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro
root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.img
title Windows XP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
/etc/fstab :

/dev/hdc9 9.7G 3.7G 5.6G 40% /
/dev/hdc8 99M 13M 82M 14% /boot
/dev/shm 244M 0 244M 0% /dev/shm

/dev/hdc6 12G 6.8G 5.3G 57% /mnt/soft
/dev/hdc7 23G 17G 6.6G 72% /mnt/media
where /dev/hdc1 is my c:/ (XP installed)
Now i have some qns..?
Why does the Cd give a blank screen output?
Now how do i manipulate my Grub.conf?
Regards
Harish
