Solaris, by default, installs Grub in the partition header. At least some Linux's by default install grub in the Master Boot block. When you reinstalled Solaris it would have updated/installed grub in the partition header and left the Grub in the Master Boot Block alone. At the grub menu you see, drop to the command line, select the solaris partition as the root partition, do a chainloader +1, then boot. The Solaris grub menu should appear. Suggest you add a Solaris option to the menu.lst in Unbunto, using the chainloader +1 to boot it. -- Tony Reeves Christchurch New Zealand _______________________________________________ install-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/install-discuss
