Have your 32 and 64 bit distros install grub in their respective partitions, not mbr. Have another grub in mbr with a small boot partition. Configure it to chainload the partitions of the distros. That is, you first boot manager let's you choose the distro, and then that boots with it's own boot loader. Cutting down the defult boot delay on them helps quite a bit with this approach ;) Michael -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
