Ok, so maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I've been trying to get EasyBCD to work with the NeoGRUB loader, but simply copying over the GRUB menu.lst file I used before I installed Vista (I haven't booted to Linux since...:s) isn't working (I get a black screen after selecting neogrub). I'd love to fix whatever I've done wrong, but the "documentation" link gives me a login page to access the wiki. So, essentially, I have no idea how this is supposed to work.
I'm posting this here, rather than the bugs forum, because my first priority is really to get this to work, followed by the wiki being accessible
One of the bigger problems is it's been so long since I've been booted into Linux that I barely even know what my partition layout is right now. Vista is telling me that I've got 5 primary partitions, but I'm pretty sure that's wrong
. If I remember right, I have:
||Vista(sda1)||Data(sda2)||(there is no partition 3)||extended(sda4)||'boot'(grub and stuff)(logical)(sda5)||swap(logical)(sda6)||'root'(logical)(sda7)||
I installed Vista fresh on partition 1, and I haven't booted into Linux since. What do I need to do to make this work? Do I need to boot to Knoppix and install GRUB to somewhere weird?
