tahrpup 6.0.2 bug in dual boot needs disc after install

#1 Post by cooltechkathy »

We installed tahrpup 6.0.2 on sda2 ext 3 partition with windows xp installed on sda1. Menulist is as follows:

# menu.lst produced by grub4dosconfig-v1.9.2
color white/blue black/cyan white/black cyan/black
#splashimage=/splash.xpm
timeout 10
default 0

# Frugal installed Puppy

title Puppy tahr 6.0.2 (sda2)
uuid ab40d098-8e64-4be4-8385-8ff53b56e5d7
kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=atahd pfix=fsck
initrd /initrd.gz

title Puppy slacko 5.6 (sda2/backup5.6frugal)

# Windows

slacko 5.6 boots instead of tahrpup when disc is removed from drive. with disc boots and works normally. installed how can we get it to load file without disc. it says tahrpup is booting but loads 5.6 file. please assist.

With CD/DVD disk removed.

Are you saying you select Tahrpup menu entry and it boots Slakco 5.6?

The UUID numbers in the menu entries look wrong.
They are all the same.
Each one should be different.

Did you make this boot menu by rerunning Grub4dos Config after each install?
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:
YaPI(any iso installer)
