/**************************************************************************/ [bugs #11481] Full Item Snapshot: URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=11481> Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: 0 On: Sun 01/02/2005 at 22:16 Category: Booting Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: None Resolution: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Dan Walter Originator Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Release: multiple Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: Summary: grub doesn't get along with grub Original Submission: If I dual boot a computer with 2 versions of linux that use GRUB, it is not a very simple thing to configure them. If I install GRUB on /dev/hda for os 1, and install GRUB on /dev/hda2 for os 2, I cannot use chainloader +1 in the grub.conf file for the grub on /dev/hda. I know this is not the most elegant solution, but from the documentation this should definitely work. On the wish list side, I think it would be nice if the grub installer had a way to get configuration information from a previously installed grub. I know this is partly an operating system issue and not a bootloader issue, but it would be helpful if there was a grub utility that the operating systems could use while they are being installed. It is somewhat embarrassing that 2 versions of linux take special manual configuration to dual boot.
