Hello!
I try to use syslinux to boot a Fedora 14 Live System from a logical
partition (sda5). However, this does not work. I get a "boot error". To
boot from that partition I use grub with "chainloader +1" from the
logical partition.
Here is my partition layout and the different bootloaders.
/dev/sda MBR from GRUB
/dev/sda1 partition containing only GRUB
/dev/sda3 syslinux successfully
/dev/sda4 extended partition
/dev/sda5 syslinux not able to boot
I succesfully used syslinux from a primary partition (sda3).
Is syslinux capable of booting from a logical partition if chainloded by
GRUB?
Thanks,
Till
