Hey !

I am new into all the linux things.. i got from a friend a ubuntu cd case with a live cd and and installation cd.

I created a new partition on my sec. HD and i ran the installation cd and it installed it all.

In the end of the installation i got asked to install a boot loader cause it detected XP also and i OK'd that.

After the reboot, i am now on XP and i cannot manage to go into the ubuntu drive.

but on Partition magic i can see that the installation is there..

how can i boot into ubuntu ?

btw, it is ubuntu 5.10... when i manage to get there, i will update to last version...
 
Ok...

I checked out some online guides and Grub cannot load on a secondary drive - slave partition..

so i am gonna install again.
 
ubuntu 6.06 (dapper drake) is the newest build, i suggest you instal that instead
 
i wouldn't, many people having installation problems, install older one, then update!

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
