Would Hirens own customiser tool be a last gasp option? i presume its linked to grub (as per what hbcd boot and menus created with). Id better offer my 2 cents before going any firther, keen as i am. Hi after years getting by (mostly with repair jobs) counting on my raw intelect and good ability to theorise without reading guides fully and learning in gerneral Regardless this method is the easiest method to implement on win7 because the management partition is not easily accessible from inside of win7.Yep, if you have the "first management partition", good to know should other members have this problem. For some reason win7 makes a small first management partition, that's why this is getting thrown off. Hmmm actually now that you mention it for some reason I remember in grldr there are 2 partitions on my hdd.
#File grldr.mbr install#
*edit* I think you mean or grubinstYes, and No, we are saying the same thing in two different manners or grubinst are among the tools that allow (among other things) to install grldr.mbr to the MBR.įor some reason win7 needs to know the exact partition drive letter. In Vista/2008/7 BCD only grldr.mbr works. In 2K/XP/2003 BOOT.INI both grldr and grldr.mbr could be chainloaded, but with recent versions seemingly only grldr can. The link to the method that worked for me is here: Regardless this method is the easiest method to implement on win7 because the management partition is not easily accessible from inside of win7. That one line is:įor some reason win7 needs to know the exact partition drive letter. The previously mentioned methods were not working for them either until they changed one line in the bcdedit stanza. Yea those 2 would probably work, I don't even need to test those eitherītw I found the solution to multiboot through bcd through a search which led me to another forum where some people were trying to boot openbsd from the bcd. You can always install grldr.mbr, or bootsect /NT52 and use the old NTLDR+BOOT.INI (rest assured it works )
Nope, not a thing "peculiar" about it, completely wiped the first 50MB of the drive and installed win7 home premium x86. There must be something "peculiar" in your setup.
I cannot swear on the BCEDIT for Vista/2008/7, but I can for the BOOT.INI For some odd reason, bcd will only boot it if you use grldr.mbr Well I can tell you that adding grldr to the bcd does not work, I have tried many times and am always greeted by the perpetually fun 0xc000000f error. Unfortunately the method depicted in the guides have been used since months without problems.īTW you won't normally add grldr.mbr to the BCD, but rather "directly" grldr.
