Request for help - GRUB - MultiBooting issue/question

neville.sequeira

Is there a recommended way (or a way at all) to setup GRUB and NTLDR (Windows XP) boot loaders such that one can jump between them in either direction?

Madrive - no CDROM?

crispix
I'm trying to load Mandriva onto this computer. I put CD1 in, the computer reads CD1, Mandriva boots up. . . and then the distribution decides that it can't find my CDROM anymore. I assume this is because it doesn't recognize it and that I can load drivers, but that doesn't help me with the install.

Setting up GUI interface in Debian

mrjeffy321
I was under the impression that Debian Linux included a GUI interface/Desktop not unlike windows. I have installed Debian, but all I seem to get is a text-based comand prompt interface. Do I need to install something additional? Is there some setting I need to turn on?.

SUSE 10.0, problems installing soundcard from scratch

jdkoola
Hi, I'm running SUSE 10. 0 on an old Pentium III (coppermine) computer (Dell Dimension 4100). I don't know what the mobo is (don't know if it's important). I have a SoundBlaster PCI128. The soundcard was recognized when I first installed SUSE; however, I somehow ended up deleting the soundcard from YaST.

Install Fedora Core 4 on USB hard drive

krispenmetsa
I tried to install Fedore Core 4 on my seagate external USB hard drive. I used my IBM Thinkpad T42 laptop with Win XP Professional to attempt this. Initially I ran into problems because my USB hard drive was not recognized and not listed as an option to install Linux.
