Duel Booting Windows XP and ReactOS
Posted: Thu Nov 10, 2005 1:43 am
I have a 160GIG HD with XP on the first partition (as drive c:) and a second 30GIG partition that I want to put ReactOS on (drive d:).
I made the second 30gig partition fat32 using the XP computer management utility.
Then I copied the qemu image to the d: drive using WinImage (as someone else mentioned). I installed GRUB using WinGRUB. I made a ReactOS menu entry with the following lines:
root(hd0,1)
kernel /freeldr.sys
When I reboot, grub allows me to choose and I select ReactOS and freeloader starts up. When I try to start ReactOS it says it can't find ntoskrnl.exe
I have ran ReactOS using the livecd and qemu image successfully and when I do so it does recognize the fat32 d: drive. I think freeldr isn't being pointed in the right direction. any help out there?[color=darkred][/color]
