To test CentOS 5, I loaded from DVD adding it to
a system at home running Fedora Core 7 T2.
Partition Layout is:
/dev/hda1 - / for the RH7T2 system
/dev/hda2 - /home
/dev/hda3 - swap
/dev/hda4 - extended
/dev/hda5 - / for CentOS 5
The system loaded cleanly and gave me the
opportunity to tell grub about the other system.
CentOS boots fine. Grub Stage 2 will show me
both systems.
However,
If I choose the FC7T2 system I get the following output:
---------------------------------------------------------
Booting 'FC7T2'
rootnoverify(hd0,0)
chainloader +1
Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
---------------------------------------------------------
The CentOS grub.conf on /dev/hda5 looks like:
#: cat /boot/grub/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this
file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
# root (hd0,4)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda5
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda

Any clues on how to fix this?
Note, I am posting to both groups since I follow both
and cannot figure out which is the better choice.
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html
section 14.3 for the error message
section 3.2 if you want to install grub in MBR. or with a rescue cd.
