GRUB prompt

Comment:

Hi everyone i have winxp prof i install fedora core6 using system commander after the install when i select linux OS its going to GRUB prompt how to configure GRUB.

Reply:

grub> root (hd0,0) (Maybe you have to change this, depending on what's your boot drive and partition) grub> setup (hd0) (Installs Grub into the Master Boot Record) grub> boot (starts the Linux System) Now you can use YAST to correct the Grub settings permanently. This is the way, SuSE Linux works. Should also work on Fedora. Paul
