Van Hellsing and Linux Battles:
First off, VAN HELSING IS COMING ON TUES. There is going to be a grand ball, muhahahahahh. Second i have to eat my apple.....ok back What is really second is that last night after a binge of Magic playing I came home with a Linux CD in had and an innocent drive with Windows XP just sitting there. I inserted the cd, restarted, and so the second great battle of the Master Boot Record began. It's not that I can't get linux installed you see, I installed Fedora 2 times, Slackware 1 and Gentoo 1, it is that I cannot get the MBR to house a boot loader without killing the ability to boot windows, but then when I get windows to boot i lose the ability to boot to linux. At least that is normally the problem. What happened this time is that my poor battered boot sector held GRUB in its confines and didn't want to change again, it was done with all of this fuckery i was inflicting upon it. Fine I said to my MBR, YOU SHALL FEEL THE RATH OF FIXMBR FROM THE XP RECOVERY CONSOLE. Foolish me, for not even this could defeat the monster I had created. We had to return to the more manuel way of doing things, we BOOTED INTO DOS. Yes bitches, DOS came, fdisk od the M$ nature came and it slapped that linux boot loader shit right out of the MBR. GRUB was gone, but only ruin was left in its place. SUNSHINE NOR WINDOWS XP could brighten then burned hulk of my MBR as I retired for troubled sleep. I have foregone continuing the battle today in favor of attending classes, but tonight the stuggle shall continue!!!! In hind-sight, I think Bush could learn something from my Linux install tactics, something about fucking with a sleeping daemon and creating uncontrollible chaos. Or maybe I just didn't sleep enough last night, installed linux 4 times starting at 10pm is never a good idea. Posted by superseth @ 10:50 AM PST |
