Ran an install of Fedora Core 7 on workstation 6.0.1 which seemed to install completely, but upon reboot get black/blank screen - do I need to specify diff. vid. card settings instead of letting it "probe?"
I opted not to install GRUB which I assume is not a problem? I don't see anything on the virtual desktop/screen other than the vmware splash screen. FYI, I also ran a kubuntu install and that runs fine?
Actually, that's exactly the problem. GRUB is the boot loader which loads the actual kernel. Without GRUB (or another loader like lilo) it won't boot.
Ah, I wasn't quite sure about that. I assumed that since Fedora would be the only OS running this wasn't necessary. I will run GRUB and hopefully red hat will follow
Update -> that did the trick thanks for the input
Thank you,
