  • Dual Boot Issues with windows 10 & RHEL

    Posted on

    Hi All,

    Warm Greetings to all,

    My query is, I have dell laptop with windows 10 installed. As of now i have started learning RHEL 7 so tried to install Linux on the same laptop and thought I could make it dual boot.
    But dont know where I made mistake please help me,

    Step that I performed;
    Step 1 : I made a 98 GiB space unallocated out of 500GiB Hard Drive for linux installation, then i insert the RHEL disc and started installation.
    Step 2: I given 3GiB for Swap and rest given to "/". with Standard Partition & EXT4 file system.
    Now the installation done and able to boot with Linux but dual boot was not there.
    I tried to check some internet tricks but i didnt know how to put them in /grub2/grub.cfg.
    Then i recovered my MBR using the windows installation disc. but now am not able to boot with RHEL.

    I tried EASYBCD tool so that i can make it dual boot. some how it detected the linux partitions i made entry but it was not booting to linux, always showing the GRUB> window. where i can use only few commands.

    Can any body please help me how do i make my Windows 10 64bit and RHEL 7.3 64 bit dual boot ?

    Sorry for my bad English..

    Please help me to get this done.
