To dual-boot my new Vista computer with Fedora 9, I followed the fedora step-by-step installation instructions for EasyBCD. I allowed Fedora 9 to resize the partition and create a partition layout. (F9 defaults to using logical volumes, which I've never used.)
EasyBCD works and Vista boots but not Fedora. I see the Fedora boot loader screen after EasyBCD and some messages and then some errors, starting with "unable to access resume device (/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01)".
Also, I note that EasyBCD does not recognize the partition containing the OS; when I add an entry, the drive drop-down looks like this for Disk 0:
Partition 0 (HPFS/NTFS - 11GB)
Partition 1 (HPFS/NTFS - 147GB)
Partition 2 (Linux native - 0GB)
Partition 3 (???? - 215GB)
If I boot from the F9 rescue disc, the Linux fs is mounted and everything looks in order. Anyone have any thoughts where I went wrong or what I can do to resolve this? Googling for this error suggests problems with swap and I don't see a swap partition... is this a problem with the F9 installer?
