Hi,
I have Installed Belenix (an opensolaris) , on one partiton (primary
4) declared swap on linux.
My PC runs Linux, I want to mount the solaris partiton, I tried
several type but no one is accepted. Normally it is an ufs.



How to acces to my partition.
In fact I want to edit the grub of solaris to change it, ( what have I
to put?? ) in order to run my solaris, in the menu at the boot, the
solaris line exists, the access to solaris partition is done by linux,
but the loader in solaris fails (belenix installed from CD live).

I reinstalled again, in this case I installed the solaris boot,
I got the solaris menu ( no Linux acces, this is no problem for me, I
can fix it later), I have the same problem,
here is the message:
commands should beinstead of multiboot)

kernel$ /platform/i86PC/kernel/$ISADR/unix
kernel$ /platform/i86PC/$ISADR/boot_archive

I changed the lines to that, I got the error
multiboot should be run before???

I don't underatand

PS: I installed in a machine where no linux installed, what is the relation??!!!


please
best regards
bela

I'm having trouble understanding you. It sounds like you can boot in
neither Linux no Solaris. I would advise using the live CD to boot the
different O/S installations. Configure Grub once booted.

Only one operating system should boot from the MBR (master boot record).
The others should boot from their partitions bootsectors (superblocks).

Use your live CD to boot either Linux and install Linux's Grub to the
MBR. Then boot into Solaris and use its Grub to install Grub to the
superblock of the Solaris partition.

You can then boot back into Linux and create a Grub boot stanza for
chain-loading the Solaris bootsector (to boot Solaris).
