Can't boot a native install with Loader 6.05

When I boot the Loader 6.05 I can't select Native, I can only select dvd/cd web boot, and other things exept native.

When I boot with Loader 5.11 it's ok but I'm getting an error with pro v4.0a

The error is:

Code: Select all

Partition /dev/hda2 is mounted with write permissions, cannot check it
Thank you

Does the partition /dev/hda2 have a bootflag?
Boot from Resctoox and do 'fdisk /dev/hda2' 'p'
look for the * after /dev/hda2 :D

isn't it supposed to be like this:

Code: Select all

#vi /mnt/hda2/ect/fstab
/dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda2 / reiserfs defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0

This is my fdisk /dev/hda2

Code: Select all

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/hda2: 159.7 GB, 159776064000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19425 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

     Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System

Command (m for help):
I followed the Fully Native Tutorial viewtopic.php?t=3092&highlight=native

Thank you

The command is;
# fdisk /dev/hda
then "p" to print.

This thread is long enough and it is supposed to be like a tutorial, not a q/a thread
