crooked Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 i have done many searches but nothing i found seemed to help me solve this problem. i have XP and Ubuntu and they are both in the grub boot menu but OS X did not show up after i installed it. as far as i know, i need to edit grub but i have no idea how to do that. i have 1 hard drive and the partitions are set up as follows: hdc1: NTFS win XP hdc2 OS X hdc3 ubuntu hdc4 ubuntu hdc5 swap i dont know why 3 and 4 both show up as ubuntu. my main question is, how do i edit grub? i am very new to ubuntu so i am not familiar with the terminal commands yet. thanks in advance for any help.

tomaszjc7 Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 I have the same problem, I tried what the wiki said and am getting an error after trying to boot OSX, Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. I have OSX set to (hd0,2) My xp is set to (hd0,0) and some recovery drive set to (hd0,1). I also tried: title OSX_X86 rootnoverify (hd0,2) makeactive chainloader +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbmkgd Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Well, he said he had some recovery drive at (hd0,1)... But I guess you meant the "--force" isn't always necessary, which is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
