Hello randy
From Slitaz open Sakura (or Terminal)
$su
#mkdir /mnt/hda1
#mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1
#pcmanfm &
In pcmanfm open /mnt/hda1/boot to know the exact name of vmlinuz (and perhaps initrd, I don't know Ubuntu)
#leafpad /boot/grub/menu.lst
add an entry like this
title Ubuntu(on hda1)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z root=/dev/hda1 ro quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-x.y.z
Save.
#reboot
That's all
Have a nice day.Posted 11 years ago # -
