My problem/question is at the bottom of this message. I have two hard drives in my system setup as follows:
Drive 0 - 500 GB
Partition 1 Primary NTFS - 50GB Booting Windows 7 - 32Bit
System, Boot, Page File, Active, Crash Dump
Partition 2 Primary NTFS - 50GB Booting Windows XP - 32 Bit
Partition 3 Primary NTFS - 50GB Unused (Intended for Windows 7 - 64 Bit)
Partition 4 Logical NTFS - 50GB Unused (Intended for Windows XP - 64 Bit)
Partition 5 Logical NTFS - 265GB Used for data storage
Drive 1 - 150 GB
Partition 1 Primary EXT4 - 30GB Booting Ubuntu 11.10 - 64 Bit
Active
Partition 2 Primary SWAP - 15GB Linux Swap Drive
Partition 3 Primary EXT4 - 30GB Booting Ubuntu 11.10 - 32 Bit
Unallocated - 75GB
EasyBCD Settings:
Default: Windows 7
Timeout: 30 seconds
EasyBCD Boot Device: C:\
Entry #1
Name: Windows 7
BCD ID: {current}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
Entry #2
Name: Windows XP - 32 Bit
BCD ID: {f02f45e6-0ef3-11e1-aa3b-d7ef80d43a4c}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \NST\ntldr
Entry #3
Name: Ubuntu 11.10 - 64 Bit
BCD ID: {f02f45ec-0ef3-11e1-aa3b-d7ef80d43a4c}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \NST\AutoNeoGrub0.mbr
Entry #4
Name: Ubuntu 11.10 - 32 Bit
BCD ID: {14220aad-0fd9-11e1-a77c-001e4fe74b95}
Drive: C:\
Bootloader Path: \NST\AutoNeoGrub1.mbr
When I installed each of the Ubuntu versions I installed the Ubuntu boot loader (Grub 2) to their respective partitions.
When whether I select #3 or #4 from the EasyBCD boot menu I get #3. What do I need to change to get #4 to boot? I would prefer not to have to go through two menus (EasyBCD and GRUB) to boot the Linux's. I can Grub to automatically boot to Linux but can I do this uniquely for each partition with EasyBCD?
Eventually I plan on installing two more version of Linux on Drive 1 (Open Suse and Open Solaris). What will I need to do to get EasyBCD to boot each of the Linux's?
Thanks,
Mike
