Thread: Configuring GURB after Fedora 12 dual boot

-

i had ubuntu 9.10 installed on laptop. while ago dual installed fedora 12 on laptop & can't enter ubuntu. don't option select os @ start up, fedora loads automatically. can me configuring grub?
grub.conf file in fedora -
# grub.conf generated anaconda
#
# note not have rerun grub after making changes file
# notice: have /boot partition. means that
# kernel , initrd paths relative /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,2)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_elssar-lv_root
# initrd /initrd-[generic-]version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=0
splashimage=(hd0,2)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title fedora (2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.pae)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.pae ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_elssa$
initrd /initramfs-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686.pae.img

also, ubuntu installation 64bit, whereas fedora installation 32bit, don't think should cause problems, want sure.

you should able use ubuntu live cd reinstall ubuntu grub mbr.

1) first boot ubuntu live cd , open gparted , check see if ubuntu partition has file system label. file system label makes easier work on, since mounted under name when mount it. if doens't have label, right-click on partition , click 'label', , give ubuntu file system user friendly name.

2) mount ubuntu file system clicking on icon in 'places' menu.

3) use command 'ls /media' check name of ubuntu file system's new mount point, named same file system label on,
code:
ls /media
4) replace word 'disk' in command below name of mount point ubuntu file system verified in above command , run command below,
code:
sudo grub-setup -d /media/disk/boot/grub /dev/sda
now should have ubuntu's grub restored mbr in first hard disk , should able reboot, removing live cd , boot ubuntu.

Arduino Uno + KTY81/210 temperature sensor

hi, sorry, new , unsure lot of things, need clarification. haven't found information explains how , why things work, "do this, that" i following guide ( arduino-thermistor-temperature-sensor-tutorial ) connect thermistor arduino uno. here temperature sensor information: temp. sensor 2000r +-1% to92 part.no.:   kty81-210 name:   temp. sensor 2000r +-1% to92 description:   2.5mm, 1980...2020ohm, -55...+150°c and here sensor's data-sheet: sensor data-sheet i have connected same way in guide. works , values being serial printed. what don't understand: 1. thermistor's , resistor's ohm value should equal, correct? in case 2000 ohm? 2. thermistor has ptc, i'm guessing have invert math or use ntc thermistor instead correct values? (currently resistance goes temperature goes down) 3. understand code uses steinhart-hart math logic convert resistor value temperature value, need a, b , c coefficients of thermis...
