Subject: Problem booting linux from a Win2000 laptop
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2005 15:25:54 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01C541CF.6B014C10.vanitha@agilis.stengg.com> (raw)

Hi All,

I have a Acer Laptop which has Win2000 installed in it. I installed redhat 
linux in it (/dev/hda5)..But i am not able to boot the linux. I restarted 
the Laptop putting the Linux Boot CD (dont have floppy drive), i am getting 
the installtion screen. I dont know how to boot the linux which is 
installed in the /dev/hda5 partition.

While installing linux i chose GRUB boot loader to install in /boot 
partition..

Can you tell me how do i boot linux which is in /dev/hda5 partition using 
the boot CD.
I could see the linux files using explore2fs..

THanks
