Hi,
I have a problem with Grub. I don't have a floppy drive and my cd drive in not working, that's why I chose to use Grub. I followed all the steps to install Mandriva; and I just figured out how to get Grub working. When I chosed it on the OS option menu, it wrote " Error 18: Cannot mount selected partition " it was talking about this:
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz append ramdisk_size=128000 automatic=method:cdrom acpi=ht vga=788 splash=silent
label vgalo kernel alt0/vmlinuz
I'm betting that its wrong,so what should I put there? Oh, here is my menu.lst:
timeout 10
title Windows at (hd0,0)
root (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title Mandriva Installer (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz append ramdisk_size=128000 automatic=method:cdrom acpi=ht vga=788 splash=silent
label vgalo kernel alt0/vmlinuz
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/all.rdz
And when I get linux installed how do I get rid of Windows xp?

Now I changed my menu.lst to this:
timeout 10
title Windows at (hd0,0)
root (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title Mandrake Linux on (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda1 quiet devfs=mount acpi=ht vga=788
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/all.rdz
but it still won't work!!!!
