There's a Debian Etch install on /dev/hda, and GRUB is also installed on the Debian side. On /dev/hdb, I have CentOS 5. I fdisked the drive manually, then chose manual partitioning during install. The setup for CentOS is: hdb1 -> swap hdb2 -> /boot, ext2 hdb3 -> / , ext3 After completing the install, I rebooted on the Debian side and edited menu.lst like this: title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18 root (hd0,1) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18 root=/dev/hda3 vga=788 ro initrd /initrd.img-2.6.18 title CentOS 5 sur hdb3 root (hd1,1) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5 root=/dev/hdb3 ro initrd /initrd-2.6.18-8.el5 Now when I try to reboot on CentOS, I get an 'Error 15: file not found'. I add that I've done many multiboot configurations before, so it's not the first time I have such a scenario. I thought, aha, maybe a typo. So I entered the GRUB shell and booted CentOS without problems, using tab completion. I double- and triple-checked after this, but I can't seem to find the error. The stanza seems OK, but still it won't work. Do you see a mistake that I don't see?

Are you sure about the initrd line? All initrd files on my CentOS boxes have the .img extension.

And that WAS the problem. Curiously, I hesitated over it. In fact, Debian initrd files are called initrd.img-2.6.18-something... while CentOS initrd is initrd-2.6.18-something.img.

You could consider installing GRUB from CentOS in the MBR of the CentOS disk (though, the boot partition would be fine too), and add something like --- title CentOS root (hd1) makeactive chainloader +1 --- To your Debian GRUB configuration. This prevents that you'll have to update your Debian GRUB configuration again after n kernel updates (where n is the number set with the installonlyn yum plugin). -- Daniel ------------------------------ Message: 10 Date: Mon, 28 May 2007 17:28:58 +1000 From: DamianS Subject: Re: [CentOS] Audacity 1.2.6 on CentOS 5 To: CentOS mailing list Message-ID: <1180337338.6183.0.camel at localhost> Content-Type: text/plain You should be able to install the FC6 package ------------------------------ Message: 11 Date: Mon, 28 May 2007 09:36:32 +0200 From: Niki Kovacs Subject: Re: [CentOS] Slightly OT: Debian and CentOS multiboot: menu.lst problem To: CentOS mailing list Message-ID: <465A8680.6000200 at kikinovak.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Daniel de Kok a écrit : > > You could consider installing GRUB from CentOS in the MBR of the CentOS > disk (though, the boot partition would be fine too), and add something > like Thanks for the hint, Daniel. But the solution is only a temporary one.

Create /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.2 directory and extract the tarball there. Copy any extensions you have in /usr/lib/firefox-1.5.0.9/extensions to /usr/lib/firefox-2.0.0.2/extensions.

First, I checked if there were any precompiled nvidia drivers in the various repos (rpmforge, ...), but there seemed to be only recent drivers. So I went to the nvidia site and downloaded the corresponding driver for my card: NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7185-pkg1.run I also updated my kernel, and then 'yum install kernel-devel gcc'. After doing this, it was time for 'init 3'. I started the installer: # sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-7185-pkg1.run I went through the steps like I've done a few times before, and it didn't complain about anything. I then opened /etc/X11/xorg.conf, searched for the Driver section and replaced "nv" by "nvidia". To be on the safe side, I rebooted. (I've had some strange GDM problems before when simply doing init 5). My default screen resolution on my 17'' flat monitor is 1024x768. (The CentOS installer defaulted to 1280x1024, but I manually edited xorg.conf to change it). Now, after starting X with the "nvidia" driver, curiously I had a resolution that looked more like 800x600 (and curiously reminded me of a default Windows 95 install :o)) I opened a console with Ctrl-Alt-F6, opened /etc/X11/xorg.conf to look for a mistake... and noticed something strange. xorg.conf looks now curiously amputated. Here's the whole file, or what's left of it: --8<------------------------------------------------- # Xorg configuration created by pyxf86config Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "ch" Option "XkbVariant" "fr" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "nvidia" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" DefaultDepth 16 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" EndSubSection EndSection --8<------------------------------------------------- This leaves me a bit clueless. Where has my original xorg.conf (the long version) gone? Is there a way to get it back somehow? And where does this new - and severely truncated xorg.conf file come from? Any suggestions?
