How do you use Live-Install disk to run "grub-install /dev/sda" ?
I download the Alternate-Ubuntu 7.10 Cd an ran, but when I get to menu
and select "Install new Grub boot loader" on /dev/sda, It's keeps taking
me back to "Partitioning Manager", That's not where I want to be.
There's nothing wrong with the Partitions.
I have got a Laptop that has WinXP, Fedora 8, and Kubuntu 7.10, on same
hard drive.
I had to upgrade Fedora, from 6 > 8 and it changed boot loader on
/dev/sda, and I want use the Ubuntu, Grub boot loader
because it sees all three operating systems. For some reason Fedora is
only seeing , Fedora and WinXp.
/dev/sda1 Dell Utils.
/dev/sda2 WinXp
/dev/sda3 Fedora /
/dev/sda4 Extended
/dev/sda5 Fedora /home
/dev/sda6 Swap
/dev/sda7 Kubuntu /
/dev/hda8 Kubuntu /home
Yeah !! , Everybody is asking why three operating on one Laptop ??
I give instructions to Newbies coming from $Windows and feel that
Kubuntu is best/easiest for new users,
But I'm a aspiring Linux Hacker and I prefer Fedora.
