raysr Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 I have tried this before with Mandrake and have never been able to get it to work. With Xandros I did succeed. I have 2005 LE installed on one Hdd hda1. I would like to install Mandrake 9.2 on a second Hdd hdb. When setting up the boot loader after clicking "add" it displays "linux-0"_____ "image"______ "root" /dev/hda1 I've never made the correct entries. What would be the correct entries in my case? I know if done wrong I will will lose 2005LE. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Well, your other hard drive is not going to be hda. So, your entry must be hdbx, hdcx, or hddx, (where x is a partition) depending upon the location on the channel. hda is your first drive, your primary master. hda1 is the first partition on that drive.

raysr Posted October 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Thanks for the reply. My second drive would be hdb. But after Linux-0 and image what should be entered? The kernel version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 linux-0 "name" image- "kernel name" boot- probably /dev/hdb1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
