If anyone is installing F11 on a Samsung NC10 netbook I just had a nasty surprise which I felt any other NC10 owner would want to know about. I had installed F11 perfectly well on this netbook using a usbkey. I had only booted to F11 until this evening, when I decided to boot XP as part of the dual boot check - this is where I had a nasty surprise - instead of booting to XP it started booting the recovery partition!! I waited until it offered me the option of accepting the re-install options (For Windows XP), and then chose to shutdown instead using the option offered. It was easy to fix after booting back to F11 - see below - but you need to be aware of this install fault before getting to this position! During the install anaconda had detected the recover partition and entered the Windows section of /boot/grub/grub.conf with the wrong partition definition. The fix was simple - change the line (hd0,0) to (hd0,1) in grub.conf and all is well - however you should check the grub.conf file produced immediately after the install to see what has been entered. I have not yet checked bugzilla but this is a bad fault in the install system, and should be fixed. I hope no-one else has been affected by this. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/F11-dual-boot-on-Samsung-NC10---BEWARE---a-nasty-shock%21-tp24443653p24443653.html Sent from the Fedora List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
