Yes, it's there. Now... The problem comes up...
How can I change it so the grub boots from my new 60GB partition instead of the old 10GB one? I would like to get rid of the old one or make it a backup or a FAT32 so I can share my stuff between Windows and Linux.
I know this isn't a Kanotix forum but most people @ kanotix.com speak German... I speak English... I think
Thanks!
You have to modify your menu.lst to access the new drive. To help you to figure out what to change, you can enter the interactive mode of grub once in the grub menu at boot time by pressing the [c] key. the [Tab] key will give you a list of the commands and will perfom autocompletion. As an example you can type "kernel (hd" [TAB] and grub will list you all the disk drives and partitions available. Be aware that for grub (hd0,0) = /dev/hda1 for linux, and (hd1,2) = /dev/hdb3,...
