Hi all, Can I ask what is the recommended disk set-up for dual-/multi-booting Ubuntu distros?
I usually partition my disk with an ext2 /boot partition and the remaining disk given over to LVM, with separate logical volumes for / and /home. This works well for a single distro, but causes problems with multiple distros: an Ubuntu kernel package update in one distro mangles the GRUB entries for all others -- in particular it is a complete disaster for 32- and 64-bit as the kernels have the same name, so not only are the grub entries mangled, but the kernel images also overwritten. So, since the way I do things is clearly not working, is there a better way? Cheers, Chris -- Chris Smith <cj...@zepler.net>
