I've got a partition with nothing but grub on it (used to be a /boot partition for an old fedora, and I kept it around to just use for grub), and a grub.conf file that looks like: default=0 timeout=10 splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/zooty.xpm.gz title Fedora 8 x86_64 rootnoverify (hd0,2) chainloader +1 title Fedora 8 i386 rootnoverify (hd0,7) chainloader +1 title Fedora 9 x86_64 rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 title Fedora 9 i386 rootnoverify (hd0,4) chainloader +1 In my case the different hats are all on one disk, and I tell the installer to install each system's grub in the boot partition rather than the MBR, but I think chainloading can cross disks as well with suitable modification of the rootnoverify gibberish. The beauty of this scheme is that kernel updates all just work. I don't have to fix anything after updating any kernel in any partition. +++ i am showing 21 post from 08/02/2008 03:00am to 08/12/2008 01:36am peace out. tc,hago. g . **** in a free world without fences, who needs gates. ** help microsoft stamp out piracy - give linux to a friend today ** to mess up a linux box, you need to work at it; to mess up an ms windows box, you just need to *look at* it. ** learn linux: 'Rute User's Tutorial and Exposition' http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html 'The Linux Documentation Project' http://www.tldp.org/ 'LDP HOWTO-index' http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/index.html 'HowtoForge' http://howtoforge.com/ ****
