Neogrub + Efi_pc = no joy?
I wanted to have multiboot capability on my system, as I have to enter to bios each time I want to swap systems.
I heard from some user that using neogrub with EasyBCE from vista, it was posible to use the pc_efi exactly the same as grub for linux.
I tried, but neogrub cannot mount the partition, no mather what I put on menu.lst
This is my config:
(hd0,0) -> Leopard 10.5.1 (with efi_pc already installed on boot using startupfiletool)
(hd1,0) -> Vista
(hd1,1) -> XP
(hd1,2) -> Tiger
(hd1,3) -> Blank Partition for storage (ntfs)
(hd1,5) -> Hfs+ for time machine
I tried this on menu.lst and directly in the console;
Title Leopard
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/boot_v5
Result = cannot mount partition (19)
Title Tiger
kernel (hd1,2)/boot/boot_v5
Result = cannot mount partition (19)
Tried with root (hdx,x) and got the same error
Needless to say that I have the boot_v5 on the root of both drives
Any indeas??
Thanks

I guess neogrub doesn't know hfs+
place boot_v5 to fat32/ntfs partition

netkas, thanks for your info.
Now it boots, but partially. I mean, Leopard boots wich is on a standalone drive with an already installed pc_efi, in the case of boot_v5 is the drive 0x81.
If I try to boot tiger from 0x80, always boots into the vista bootloader.
How can I get to boot tiger if vista bootloader is on top of it?
Maintaining vista bootloader aswell of course.
Thanks!!
