Help with dual boot: Ubuntu 10.04 + Xpud

**The_Falcon** · 22-02-12, 07:42 PM

Hi there,

Can someone guide me on configuring Ubuntu 10.04 to dual boot with xPud from the HDD (not Pen Drive) ?

I have tried everything from www.xpud.org - but in vain.

My system does not even gives a hint that i have made ant modification to the grub.cfg file

I followed instructions for both grub and grub2(sorry am not sure which one I have - guide me).

Ubuntu 10.04 is the only OS installed on my PC.

Let me know if any more info is required.

Thanks !

10.04 lucid has grub2. now, on xpud its given as

Code:

menuentry "xPUD 0.9.2" {

loopback loop (hdx,x)/path/to/iso/xpud-0.9.2.iso

linux(loop)/boot/xpud isofrom=/path/to/iso/xpud-0.9.2.iso noisapnp quiet

initrd   (loop)/opt/media

}

Here,

The x in (hdx,x) must be replaced by the appropriate numbers. It refers to a

disk partition. For example on my system /dev/sda3 is my Ubuntu partition

and it is (hd0,3).

path_to_iso must be replaced by the path to the iso file.

you can create a new menu in grub2 as given here
