Problem with booting Linux Mint 8
Hello saikee,
i have read the most of the postings in this thread but found no solution for my problem with Linux Mint 8...
My USB disk structure is:
Code:
Device Part.Type Format Label Marks
/dev/sdc1 primary fat32 boot boot
/dev/sdc2 extended
/dev/sdc5 logical linux-swap
/dev/sdc6 logical ext2 Dream
/dev/sdc7 logical ext2 Arcade
/dev/sdc8 logical ext2 Mint
/dev/sdc9 logical ext2 Sabyon
/dev/sdc3 primary fat32 HOME
First i installed DreamLinux 3.5 Gnome in /dev/sdc6 with grub in MBR and via terminal in /dev/sdc6 and copied the boot folder from /dev/sdc6 to /dev/sdc1.
Seccond i installed Linux Mint 8 Helena and its grub in /dev/sdc8.
The menu.lst on /dev/sdc1:
Code:
color red/black red/light-gray
title This is the frequently use Linux booting menu
boot
title DreamLinux @ sda6
root (hd0,5)
chainloader +1
title Puppeee Arcade @ sda7
root (hd0,6)
chainloader +1
title Linux Mint @ sda8 via chainloader
root (hd0,7)
chainloader +1
title Linux Mint @ sda8 via core.img
root (hd0,7)
kernel /boot/grub/core.img
savedefault
boot
title Sabayon Linux @ sda9
root (hd0,8)
chainloader +1
If i select DreamLinux it boots the DreamLinux menu and from there it boots DL like it should.
If i select "Linux Mint @ sda8 via chainloader" grub tells me:
Code:
Error 13: Ivalid or unsupported executable format
Press any key to continue...
If i select "Linux Mint @ sda8 via core.img" grub tells me:
Code:
, bss=0x0
Error 15: File not found
Press any key to continue...
Linux Mint 8 Helena uses /boot/grub/grub.cfg as boot meu seems it uses grub2...
Can you help me?
