Hi, i have installed in my computer FBSD 5.1, and RH9. The thing is,
when i try to get GRUB to boot FBSD, i get the following error
message: root (hd0,2,a) Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
Then, in the GRUB-shell, i get this from auto-completion. Partition
num: 2, [BSD sub-partitions immediately follow] BSD Partition num:
'a', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5 BSD Partition num:
'b', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5 BSD Partition num:
'd', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5 BSD Partition num:
'e', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5 BSD Partition num:
'f', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5 And i'm guessing
that it is because of this, it then grub> kernel /boot/loader ro
root=/dev/hda3 Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition This is an
extract of my grub.conf. I looked for info about this, and found no
other reference. title FreeBSD 5.1 Release root (hd0,2,a) kernel
/boot/loader ro root=/dev/hda3 I will appreciate any input. Thanks.
Alejandro, from BA, Argentina.
