WinXP don't boot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi all,

I've installed CentOS 4.4 in a box which previously had dual boot (XP
SP2 and Ubuntu)

I can run CentOS without problem but I can't boot XP SP2. When I try it
the system simply hangs...

[root@seth ~]# fdisk -l
Disco /dev/hdb: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes
255 cabezas, 63 sectores/pista, 4865 cilindros
Unidades = cilindros de 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disposit. Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hdb1               1        4865    39078081   83  Linux
/dev/hdb4   *           1           1           0    0  Vacía
La partición 4 no termina en un límite de cilindro.

Disco /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 cabezas, 63 sectores/pista, 19457 cilindros
Unidades = cilindros de 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disposit. Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1       10445    83891399    7  HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2           10446       10476      249007+  83  Linux
/dev/sda3   *       10477       19203    70099627+  83  Linux
/dev/sda4           19204       19457     2040255   82  Linux swap

And...

[root@seth ~]# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#          root (hd1,1)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda3
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hdb
default=1
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd1,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title CentOS (2.6.9-42.0.3.EL)
        root (hd1,1)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
        initrd /initrd-2.6.9-42.0.3.EL.img
#title CentOS-4 i386 (2.6.9-42.ELsmp)
#       root (hd1,1)
#       kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.ELsmp ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
#       initrd /initrd-2.6.9-42.ELsmp.img
#title CentOS-4 i386-up (2.6.9-42.EL)
#       root (hd1,1)
#       kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.EL ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
#       initrd /initrd-2.6.9-42.EL.img
title XP SP2
        rootnoverify (hd1,0)
        makeactive
        chainloader +1

And, finally...

[root@seth ~]# cat /boot/grub/device.map
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(fd0)     /dev/fd0
(hd0)     /dev/hdb
(hd1)     /dev/sda

Alls seems good but the problem stills there: no error messages, simply
hangs...

¿Any clue?
