OpenSUSE Install :: Can't Boot Into SuSE (Dual Boot With Win7)?

May 26, 2011

I'm trying to dual-boot Windows 7 with openSuSE 11.4, i was told that i should install SuSE after windows 7 as it takes care of the boot-loader and automatically detects my windows installation and not vice-versa,
But that is not true in my case.

So i had 2 hard disks one had windows 7 installed and one was empty so i decided that i should get openSuSE 11.4 on the empty hard disk and dual-boot it with windows 7 (that i already had installed). Downloaded the DVD, put it on a USB and installed SuSE on the other hard disk normally, it detected my windows installation on my main hard disk but i didn't touch that, only formatted my other hard disk to ext4

After the installation it booted automatically into SuSE, but now every time on a fresh restart the system boots automatically into windows. Methods i have already tried to resolve this and it didn't work:

1. Booted from the DVD and selected an "Upgrade" not "New Installation" so i could boot again into my SuSE installation which did work, checked my "Boot Loader" options from YaST and checked the "Boot from MBR" option instead of the "Boot from root partition" option, That Did NOT work.

2. Used the same method to Boot into SuSE with the "Upgrade" Option opened up the terminal and tried to install grub manually again using this link

[Code]...

OpenSUSE Install :: Suse 11.2 Won't Boot From Dual Partiton With Ubuntu 9.04?

Jan 11, 2010

I've been running a Suse 11.2 and ubuntu 9.04 on an internal HDD in separate partitions for about 6 months on an Acer aspire with 756 meg ram. I installed Suse first then Ubuntu as I couldn't work out how to alter the partitions and keep Ubuntu when installing Suse first. Yesterday when I tried to boot Suse I got the message Error 15 no file found. I went into boot edit for and Suse this is what I found.

Root (HD0.0)
Kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-0.1-default root=/dev/disk/by-id/ata-s
nitrd /boot/initro.2.6.31.5-0.1-default

Id like to be able to fix this so I don't lose either OS as I use them both for different things and until I learn all about Suse and can make a live cd of OS, I really love it but am not prepared to dump ubuntu. I've put a lot of time into both and don't want to start again. I've got a Suse studio account and really want to create my own dedicated Video/audio KDE Suse. I'm new to dealing with grub and the terminal other than cut and paste, so may be a bit dim until I can understand them.

OpenSUSE Install :: Need To Remove 11.1 Only From Dual Boot Drive

Mar 15, 2010

I have a laptop with a small (dual boot) hard drive. It is a dual boot with Windows XP and Open Suse 11.1. I want to remove Suse Linux but keep the Windows side. I need to keep that Windows drive just the way it is. I have OpenSUSE 11.2 installed in another laptop and want to keep them separate. I don't want to damage the proprietary program on the windows side. My challenge is I do not have aa Windows install CD, I do have the recovery disk that came with the Laptop, but this DOES NOT include the Proprietary program I want to keep. Is there a way to remove Linux from this dual boot drive without erasing Windows?

OpenSUSE Install :: How To Re-install Suse On A Dual Boot System

Oct 22, 2010

Gnome is falling apart and I've had a lot of nagging problems that I couldn't overcome.I'm thinking of wiping the OpenSuse partitions and doing a clean install without wiping the windows partition.I initially setup using the 11.0/XP dual boot FAQ in the How To forum.I have my Home directory backed up on an external HD. Might try KDE next go-round or KDE & Gnome as separate users. I have 11.2 i586 installation DVD.

SUSE :: Dual Boot 11.2 And XP?

Jan 6, 2010

I installed open SUSE to dual boot with XP and have an interesting problem. When my computer rebooted to complete the SUSE install, it would not work at all. I rebooted and the GRUB came up with operating system choices, but when I chose one, absolutely nothing would happen. I tried to reinstall SUSE and nothing happened. I rebooted with the XP cd and nothing happened. I then rebooted with a bood cd I have and it showed the hard drive but could not test it and said it was absent.

After freaking out, I shut the computer all the way off and started it up again. Now it works. It seems that I cannot reboot the system for it to work. I have to turn it all the way off before it will work at all.

Windows runs as well but was a bit shaky to start. I think it's ok now.

Anyone know why a reboot will not restart the system and I have to shut it all the way down? Soft boot, hard boot, doesn't make any difference.

Installation :: Dual Boot Windows 7 / Suse 11

Sep 5, 2010

I am trying to install Suse 11 on my new laptop. The laptop has 250GB capacity. As I only use Linux for some scientific programming, I only needed to allocate about 20GB to Linux.

SDA1 is NTFS PQ Service 13.1 GB
SDA2 is NTFS Sys Reserved 101.9 GB
SDA 3 was the mainWindows user partition.
I shrunk this partition to 195GB using GPARTED.

I then tried to add 3 new Linux partitions to the unallocated disc space for usr home and a swap partition. GPARTED informed me that I would need to produce an extended partition to do this.

SDA4 became an extended partition 24.42GB
SDA5 EXT2 10.74 GB
SDA6 SWAP 1.46GB
SDA7 EXT2 11.21GB

When I started the SUSE install, all of the partitions were recognised correctly, but on the Grub details screen (Grub was allocated by SUSE to SDA4) I was warned that as this was beyond 128GB, my computer might not boot correctly. Is this likely to be the case, or do I need to alter something to get SUSE to install. The last thing i want with a new computer is a system that won't boot at all.

Ubuntu :: Remove Dual Boot ?

Mar 27, 2010

Prior to installing ubuntu I had an installation of Vista Ultimate on my computer. I kept that OS and installed ubuntu on a clean second hard drive. The Vista installation included a small program called Vista Boot Pro which allowed me to dual boot to either vista or the empty hard drive. Since installing ubuntu I now have many options when booting including ubuntu and Vista. Ubuntu added a series of other options that were not present originally. Is there a way to uninstall the dual boot option from ubuntu and just use the vista dual boot program (VistaBootPro)?

OpenSUSE Install :: Cannot Use SuSe And Cannot Remove It

Sep 11, 2010

I have installed 11.3 and really hashed it. I am getting no where and cannot find my way around. I tried to install as a partition with Ubuntu and Windows 7. Result. I have lost Both Ubuntu and windows with SUSE 11.3 installed and with YAST2 (as superuser) I cannot install belkin to get an internet connection, cannot instal Ubuntu or any thing else. I get the following;

[/media/Ubuntu 9.10 i386/wubi.exe] End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the centraldirectory and zipfile cannot be found on the last disk(s) of this archive. zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of the /media/Ubuntu 9.10 i386/wubi.exe or /media/Ubuntu 9.10 i386/wubi.exe.zip, and cannot find /media/Ubuntu 9.10 i386/wubi.exe.ZIP, period

I think I have not only installed this incorrectly but I have something I don't fully understand.

I would like to reinstall Ubuntu and then if I cannot get on with SUSE

Ubuntu :: Dual Boot - Actually Add/remove Programs ?

Sep 29, 2010

So a few years ago I had a guy build me a computer that solely run off Ubuntu. Was a gift to me dad and all was well...my dad just gave me the computer and there are too many problems and I am not exactly good with this kind of work.

I really just want to completely uninstall Linux so I can get windows xp on this laptop. I don't even know where to start, any ideas?

Unless of course someone can give me a crash course on how to fix me being able to download updates so that I can actually add/remove programs, get my DVD to read DVDs and many many more ridiculous things...

Ubuntu Installation :: Remove UNR From Dual Boot WIN XP EEE PC

Oct 14, 2010

I recently did a package upgrade on my UNR installation and it killed my wireless connection. After playing around non stop trying to get it to work again, I've destroyed the installation and would like to remove it and start again.

My system is a EEE PC 1005H running firstly WINXP and then UNR 10.04 lucid as dual boot.

I need to remove the UNR installation so I'm basically left with WinXP only. I want to get back to this stage so I can pretty much start again and get back to a working system.
