Boot Linux method, I know three kinds:
Method 1: Guide floppy disk
(1) Making with mkbootdisk under Linux.
(2) If the hard disk boot information is lost, you cannot enter the Linux system to boot the floppy disk. For RH, use the Redhat Linux CD to enter the Secure mode. When you ask if the Linux system in the hard disk is set to the current environment, "Yes", then The system enters the Linux environment of the hard disk, runs MkBootdisk, and makes a boot disk.
(3) Take the same version of Linux boot floppy disk, modify "root = / dev / hdxx" in the syslinux.cfg file for your hdax, hdbx, .... also!
Method 2: DOS mode:
Several files in the first disc copy to the same directory of the hard disk:
DOSUTILS directory: loadinglin.exe
Isolinux directory: initrd.img, VMLinuz
Then create a batch file xxx.bat in this directory:
Loadlin vmlinuz root = / dev / hdxx
Loadlin vmlinuz initrd = initrd.img
(HDXX represents your partition in your Linux! Specific HDA1, HDA2, ... you want to see the partition you installed.)
Start to DOS (Do not load other drivers, settings), enter that directory to execute batch files, should be able to enter!
Method 3: Use WindowsNT Loader (NT Boot menu)
If you have installed WindowsNT, 2000, XP, ... you can do it under Linux:
DD if = / dev / hdxx of = bootsect.lnx count = 1
Copy bootsect.lnx to C: /. Modify C: /Boot.ini, add a line of content, look like this:
[boot loader]
TIMEOUT = 10
DEFAULT = MULTI (0) Disk (0) RDisk (0) Partition (1) / Winnt
[Operating Systems]
Multi (0) Disk (0) RDisk (0) Partition (1) / Winnt = 'Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional' / FastDetect
C: /bootsect.lnx='Red Hat 9 '
Start NT (2000, XP ...) can see the selection menu!
I don't know how Linux is named, see here:
