Boot Manager

Postby nac on Tue Feb 05, 2008 7:09 am

Hello, I'm new to Linux.

Could you please explain how to configure the boot manager, or tell me where to get the manual? I'm trying to install magnussoft Zeta (another OS), but unfortunately it doesn't recognize Linux partitions, and Linux doesn't recognize it's partition type. :? Thanks.

Forget about it. This OS is no longer maintained, their homepage states
Magnussofts Vertrieb der magnussoft Zeta Produkte, muss weiterhin eingestellt bleiben.

which in english is
Magnussoft must cancel the maintaining of the magnussoft Zeta Products
(bad translation :))

Yes, please. If it's called grub, "man grub" should tell me what to do, right? Thanks again.

BTW "welcome back"? :(

nac,

I wouldn't read anything into what Husse said. Language thing. I think what he was saying was you arn't likely to find any help here with magnussoft Zeta Products, but you are welcome to ask about other Linux and/or Mint issues.
