jmg999 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Hi, For weeks, I'd tried installing OSx86 on a Dell laptop. Finally, I tried a different Dell laptop w/ the Kalyway release, and I was able to get it installed. It's fairly stable, so I installed Ubuntu, as well, which had been my plan all along. Ubuntu is stable, so I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst. OSx86 is hd0,2, so I started w/ this... title Hackintosh root (hd0,2) chainloader +1 That didn't seem to work, so I tried: title Hackintosh rootnoverify (hd0,2) makeactive chainloader +1 This didn't work, either. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Thank you. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84968-kalyway-1051-grub-error/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
