So I'm coming across a little issue...
I have one hard disk, it's an SSD
grub4dos is installed onto the MBR
Windows7 (NTFS file system) is installed onto the first partition of the disk (100 GB)
second NTFS file system (10GB) reserved for a web server is sitting on the back end of the disk
when I go to boot I am brought first the the grub info screen
after hitting a bunch of enters I come to
grub>
now at this point I need to (at least manually, and hopefully in the future "teach") grub to chainload my windows7
now windows7 is sitting on (hd0,0)
I can
root (hd0,0)
I can even
find --set-root/foo.txt
(my own tag file)
and I can even
find --set-root/bootmgr
and get (hd0,0)
now I can type
chainloader /boot
hit TAB
and see
that Boot bootmgr BOOTSECK.BAK are all available
but when I
chainloader /bootmgr
I get
Error 15: File not found
I've also tried to
chainloader (hd0,0)/bootmgr Error 15: File not found
...
I know the file is there
I know it exists
I even made BOOTMGR
and boot/bootmgr
but none of them launch...
I don't know what to do
I can get my windows recovery disk and reinstall the windows loader to the MBR
but that's not what I want
I want grub to do it
why can't grub find the file that itself can find and see exists?
any ideas and help with this would be truly appreciated
