that I wanted to proceed with CentOS v5.2. The installation went fine with two notable exceptions:- when I had to configure grub installation parameters, CentOS offered me only 2 solutions: either install it on the MBR of the first hard disk or not installing it at all. Other distributions are more flexible allowing you to install it in the boot sector redhat error 13: invalid or unsupported executable format of the root partition for example. Because I didn't want to ruin the existent grub configuration, I reluctantly accepted not to install it for CentOS assuming that I could manually configure the entry later in grub's menu.lst file.- when I was presented with the options for software components installation, I've clicked on virtualization category/function because I intend to use the machine as a VMware host. There was no guidance on screen at that point and I blindly assumed that by choosing the virtualization function I would get necessary tools and drivers that will help me further on. It seems that this was a wrong move as you can see it below.After completing the installation, I tried to search for a template or guiding on how the menu entry in menu.lst should look like but the grub directory was empty, not surprisingly because I've told CentOS earlier not to install it. Using the files in the /boot directory from the CentOS installation I tried to improvise a menu entry but it's not working. The boot stops with famous Error 13: Inva

My last Linux install was RedHat 5.3, a decade ago :-). invalid or unsupported We first freed 20G of disk to make room for Linux. No issue. Then we tried installing to disk from Fedora-8-x86_64-DVD, but this failed for unknown reasons (the last messages seem to indicate problems with /dev/sda -- it also made Vista slow to start until we zapped the two partitions Fedora had created in the freed space). So we decide to try and install to a 4G flash drive instead, and from a live CD. We booted from Fedora-8-Live-x86_64, no problem, then ran the "Install do disk". This ran to completion with no apparent problem. I hadn't yet understood much about GRUB, so I don't know exactly what I answered, but I avoided the HDD's MBR. This created two partitions on the flash drive: ~200M (/boot) and 3.7G (LVM -- with no swap). The resulting /boot can be mounted from the live CD (as /dev/sdb1). Then, in Vista, we added the /boot partition using EasyBCD. Given what happens next, this must be where GRUB was installed (and not the MBR of the flash drive). On rebooting, Vista's boot environment presents us with both choices. If I select Linux, I end up with the "grub>" prompt after an error message about not being able to boot. But there I can't g
