Hi, new to linux and need help. I currently have windows xp installed on my system (on a fat32 partition). I really would love to get rid of it all together, except I need it for games I play. Anyway, when I install linux, I can't get the boot loader to work. Windows was installed first, and I install linux after, using the automatic partition option, and choose lilo as my boot loader, and have it install the boot information on the fist sector of the linux partition (have also tried installing telling it to use the mbr option), but the computer still boots straight into bloody windows. I currently have to use a boot disk to access linux. What is going wrong? Is there a way to get linux to boot properly without having to re-install everything again, or even if I have to re-install, how do I get it all to work. When selecting partitions and the such, linux actually gives me a message saying there may be a problem with the way the system is set up and accessing /boot, and strongly reccomends me to create a boot disk due to possible problems loading into linux.
thanks for the help, cause this is really getting me annoyed. regards Greg. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
