hello…
I’ve windows and I openSuse 11.2
I want to install Ubuntu 9.10
but When I did I found in boot leader Windows & Ubuntu & openSuse
the problem is when I try to access to OpenSuse
this message show :
Error : you need to load Kernel
and now I just can access to Windows and Ubuntu
thanks for all
What boot loader are you talking about ?
I assume you’re booting from Ubuntu’s Grub now.
There are different solutions. Here is one:
menuentry "openSUSE Grub" {
set root=(hd0,2)
chainloader +1
}
Note: this example assumes that your openSUSE partition is sda2. If it were sda3, you would have written (hd0,3) instead.
This is one solution among others. But it will work (actually better than directly booting (some) Linux kernel).
I also assumed that you didn’t accidentally overwrite an openSUSE partition while installing Ubuntu. You should show us the output of:
fdisk -l
I also got this same message after running an update of Open Suse 11.2 on the 14th Feb, and then trying to boot into it again from Mint 8.
What part of the update would have caused that?
I was simply going to run update-grub in mint. Would that work without doing anything else?
thanks , I’ll try install grub from liveCD
and
You should show us the output of:fdisk -l

That’s great. Now, which partition is openSUSE / . Please post the output of:
**mount
df -hl
**
Although you can use two or more swap partitions, you can share the same swap partition for openSUSE and Ubuntu. I would say that the second swap partition in your case is a waist of HD space (but it doesn’t bother if you don’t care).
