Hello,
My PC is booting directly to the GRUB4DOS 0.4.5c of 2012 26 09 dos menu prompt.
It then boots to my Knoppix 7 UNIX OS when I enter the root, and kernel load commands every time.
I have two hard drives with 3 partitions each.
I have XP, windows 7 and windows 8 multiboot. They all work fine using easybcd 2.2.
My unix sata HDS partiton is on drive 1 and the 3rd partition (hd1,2).
My first boot drive is a WDC IDE drive.
The next drive is the unix drive HDS sata.
Below is my menu.1st file from the knoppix 7 unix OS grub folder.
Can any expert or professional help.
I have no programming skills and is a retired accounts person:
