Guest Magwitch Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 What happens if you try to boot one of the other two configurations? (first linux-nonfb, and if this does not work too, failsafe). Hi scarecrow, thanks for replying. When the Menu comes up, I have just the following choices - Boot Mandriva Linux 2008 Boot Mandrive 2008 (safe mode) Boot MS Windows Going into safe mode, I get a script running, but it doesn't go into safe mode, just stops. At one point in the script it has - Mounting local filesystems: Mount : special device/dev/hdc1 doesn't exist Mount : special device/dev/hdc5 doesn't exist FAILED Magwitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Magwitch Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 All OK now - just upgraded my mainboard and graphics card (was going to do it anyway), and I can now boot to Mandriva and XP seamlessly. Cheers, Magwitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
