Fedora Grub tweaking.

Vernon Brown_4 — Thu, 03 Mar 2005 08:39:35 GMT

I set up Grub on my latest install of Fedora Core 1 to have multiple boot options for 4 different operating systems. On two of the multiple boots I mistakenly entered the swap partitions instead of the boot partitions. Does anyone know how I can fix this without doing a re-install of Fedora ??

Thanks for any help !!

The only way I know is if you ran a mondo backup. You could lay it back down with your original config and change grub or lili and swap configs. But I am sure you probably know that. Sorry not much help here.

Use rescue cd to boot from.
then
chroot /mnt/sysimage

then edit /etc/grub.conf and make all necessary changes.
Hope it helps.

Actually you can boot from the first installation cd.
type
linux rescue
at prompt.
