I can boot Win 7 and Ubuntu 9.10 boot fine natively.
When I try to boot win7 in Fusion I get this: GRUB loading. error: unknown filesystem, grup rescue>
After installing ubuntu 9.10 I followed this instructions on here and moved grub to the ubuntu partition. which allowed ubuntu to load, but not win 7.
i used the win 7 dvd to do a boot record repair on the drive, but still win 7 will not load in Fusion 3.01
to Chopper3:
i am trying to boot from 2 different VMs. i used the these commands to modify the 2 VMs. ./vmware-rawdiskCreator create /dev/disk1 2 "/temp.vmwarevm/ubuntu" ide ./vmware-rawdiskCreator create /dev/disk1 1 "/temp.vmwarevm/windows7" ide
I moved the *. vmdk files into their respective VMs.
so the win7 VM is pointing to partition 1 and the ubuntu VM is pointing to partition 2 of disk1.
launching the ubuntu VM works fine. launching the win7 VM i get the grub error.
One more edit:
sorry for not making it clearer.
I am using 2 VMs. i am not trying to boot from that same vmdk files.
I am trying to boot 2 different virtual machines to 2 different boot camp partitions. One VM boots the ubuntu boot camp partition. it works after following the directions posted in another post.
And one VM that boots the Windows 7 boot camp partition. gives me the grub error i posted earlier.
anyone have any ideas how to fix?
