The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by IPfreely in Linux, Ubuntu, Red Hat Linux
Hello!
After a week of searching and experimenting I'm not making this any better and I need some help:
After installing RedHat8, Win2000 is unusable. By this I mean it can take hours to log in and Windows Explorer totally freezes when it sees the linux partitions. I managed to actually get into windows to begin with by changing the grub bootloader from "rootnoverify to root" (to fix error 25). I've also tried changing the windows portion of grub.conf to:
<pre>title Windows 2000
unhide (hd0,0)
hide (hd1,5)
hide (hd1,6)
hide (hd1,7)
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
makeactive
boot
</pre>
but then I was just dumped into the grub commandline and nothing loaded.
What do I need to tell you about my system to help me? I'm a newbie with linux so please be patient & clear.
Summary:
1) Should I hide the Linux partitions from windows (and how)?
2) Do I need to do something to windows MBR?
3) I'm really confused.
Thank you for your time
