Hi all,
I've just installed 9.10 along side F11 on a laptop.
When I boot, both the Ubuntu and Fedora installations are shown in grub.
However, when I try to boot the latter, I get an error message: "error: You
need to load the kernel first"
Here is the relevant section in grub.cfg:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
menuentry "Fedora (2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586) (on /dev/sda2)" {
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,2)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set
5a8b0f33-5369-4a45-a501-455ed10f4fa7
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586 ro
root=UUID=5a8b0f33-5369-4a45-a501-455ed10f4fa7 rhgb resume=/dev/sda3
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.30.9-90.fc11.i586.img
}
menuentry "Fedora (2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586) (on /dev/sda2)" {
insmod ext2
set root=(hd0,2)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set
5a8b0f33-5369-4a45-a501-455ed10f4fa7
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586 ro
root=UUID=5a8b0f33-5369-4a45-a501-455ed10f4fa7 resume=/dev/sda3 rhgb
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586.img
}
### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
The above entries were generated automatically. The Fedora boot is on sda1,
root is sd2.
Any ideas about what is going on here?
Thanks.
