Package: debian-installer Severity: normal
Hi, This report may be more appropriate for grub, but I'm not sure. When configuring dual boot with Fedora Core 3, the Sarge Debian install adds the lines **************************************************************************** [...] ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST # This is a divider, added to separate the menu items below from the Debian # ones. title Other operating systems: root # This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for an existing # linux installation on /dev/hda2. title Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg) (on /dev/hda2) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 root=/dev/hda2 savedefault boot ***************************************************************************** to /boot/grub/menu.lst. However, this kernel is an initrd image, so that does not work. The following works (but may be sub-optimal). ******************************************************************************* title Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg) (on /dev/hda2) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 root=/dev/hda2 ro initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img savedefault boot ******************************************************************************* The contents of /boot on the Fedora Core installation appear below. ******************************************************************************* drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 1024 Nov 1 11:04 . drwxr-xr-x 25 root root 4096 Nov 1 13:03 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5824 Jun 15 2004 boot.b -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 612 Jun 15 2004 chain.b -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 50929 Nov 2 2004 config-2.6.9-1.667 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Nov 1 11:05 grub -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 397193 Oct 31 15:35 initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img drwx------ 2 root root 12288 Oct 31 10:27 lost+found -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 81860 Sep 29 2004 memtest86+-1.26 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 640 Jun 15 2004 os2_d.b -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 714266 Nov 2 2004 System.map-2.6.9-1.667 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1405861 Nov 2 2004 vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ********************************************************************************* Thanks.
