Maybe it's time to dispense with the script (menu.lst/grub.conf)
CLUE ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ CLUE :-)
I don't understand how that would help.
It seems to me that that would leave me with even less documentation.
Like running an app in an xterm, otherwise invisible messages may provide a
necessary clue to solving a problem.
I installed openSUSE just to see if I could.
I could, but not without problems.
The first one was that it hung after its automatic reboot.
By default, first reboot is not a reboot but a kexec. Kexec doesn't always
work as intended.
Pressing reset got the job done.
Meaning openSUSE 12.1 is successfully installed and bootable?
The other is that it took me a while to discover that to change
my boot options I needed to edit menu.lst , not grub.conf .
See above. :-)
In F17 neither will work. It uses Grub2.
I was really panicking for a while.
Still no go on F16 or F17.
:-(
How about "cloning" your F15, and upgrading that to F16 with latest fixes
with Yum?
