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 Quote 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
