HD Install :: grub.conf details for DSL
I have Redhat Linux and Windows installed on /dev/hda and DSL installed in a 300 MB partition of /deb/hdb (specifically, /dev/hdb2). I need to configure my grub.conf so that I can boot into DSL Does anyone know what I put in the conf file to make this work? Here's what I have right now:
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=30
splashimage=(hd0,2)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.20-2.21)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-2.21 ro root=LABEL=/ hdd=ide-scsi
initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.20-2.21.img
title DOS
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
title DSL
root (hd1,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-xfs
# initrd /vmlinux
I think I have the 'hd1,1' correct. This should mean hdb2 in grub terms (I guess). What should the 'kernel' line be? I'm guessing on the '/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-xfs'. Also, I have no clue what I should have for the 'initrd' line. Shouldn't there be an inetrd file or an img file in the installation?
When I boot using the current conf file, I get a kernel panic on bootup when I select DSL
BTW, booting up up DSL on a different machine that has RH, Windows, and DSL has no problem because it uses the lilo.conf that was generated by the DSL install.
Thanks,

Have you the vmlinuz-2.4.20-xfs in /boot
? That's the boot partion in RedHat
Yes,
I have
/mnt/dsl/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-xfs
Should there be a inrdline?
