My computer has a partitioned harddisk<BR>> of 40 Gbyte. 10 Gbyte is for drive C, 10 Gbyte for<BR>> drive D and the rest for Linux RH9. Windows XP was<BR>> installed in drive C. <BR>> After installing Windows ME in drive D, the Grub does<BR>> not work any more and I can not use Windows XP and<BR>> RedHat9..<BR>> Now I want to use Windows XP, Windows ME and RH9<BR>> together and therefore I install grub with<BR>> grub-install. With RH9 insta! ! llation CD, I come to<BR>> linux rescue mode and have the prompt<BR>> sh-2.05#<BR>> I will type the command: grub-install [OPTION]<BR>> install_device<BR>> but in the manual, install_device can be a GRUB device<BR>> name or a system device filename.<BR>> My problem is : I do not know the name of GRUB device<BR>> or the filename of system device.<BR>> Could someone help me please to tell me what is the<BR>> GRUB device name or system device filename. How should<BR>> I name the GRUB device or the system device?<BR>> I want to know whether the device map file exist. In<BR>> manual, the file is called: /boot/grub/device.map<BR>> I typed: vi /boot/grub/device.map<BR>> but it was empty file.<BR>> How could I look at the file? <BR>> <BR>> Thanks in advance for your answer.<BR>> Nofriyadi Nurdam<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> __________________________________ <BR>> Yahoo!
