It only matters for getting GRUB to start. With a multi-boot system you may have ended up with a few installations of GRUB, one per OS. That doesn't matter, you only need to use one of them. > grub> setup (hd0) That sets up where GRUB starts from.

That sounds awfully like you might have a defective hard drive. > After I boot to fedora with grub from ubuntu, i get the message : > " unable to access resume device in LABEL=SWAP-hda5 " This just means that Fedora is looking in the swap space to see if you'd hibernated your computer rather than shut it down. If you'd hibernated it, RAM contents would have been dumped to the swap space, and the computer could resume from where you left it. If you hadn't hibernated, or the OS can't manage to resume, it'll just boot up normally. If you don't hibernate your PC (suspend to disc), then don't worry about it. > I figure that this error because I install slackware, and slackware > change the swap prperties, so FC6 can read it. You can share swap between OSs, as long as you don't care about trying to make use of it between reboots. You can set up separate swap spaces per OS, but that'll use more disc space. > before I install slackware in /dev/disk/by-label , I found "SWAP-hda5" > and i got no eror message like that, but after i install slack the > "SWAP-hda5" is gone, so that's why i think FC6 got confused. how could > i bring back that label to my swap partition so the error is fixed. You can change the fstab file so that it refers to the swap space by device label (e.g. /dev/hda3 or whatever number partition yours really is), instead of using a label. -- (This PC runs FC4, my others FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
