Hi. I'm new to Linux and am unaware about most of the technicalities of this OS. Recently I installed Red Hat 9 on my PC. My existing OS is Win XP Pro. After successful completion of the installation when I rebooted the machine, this is what I found in the OS choice menu:
I've no clue where that second Linux option came up from. And then, after a few days, on booting I found the PC wont start. All I got was a black DOS screen with "grub>" as prompt. Being unable to boot, I deleted the Linux partition using XP boot CD.
Yesterday, once again I tried to install Linux, and yet again as before found the same OS choice menu after installation.
I’ve installed Linux using the same CD on my friends PC without any problem. Could any body tell me what’s happening here?
Red Hat Linux (2.4.20- 8smp)
Red Hat Linux-up ( 2.4.20-8 )
