Looks good, sounds like you know what you're doing, but your Mandrake entry looks a bit bare. I think it should at least need a root=/dev/hdb1
title LFS 6.0 root (hd1, 4) kernel /boot/lfskernel-2.6.8.1 root=/dev/hdb1
title Mandrake root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.8.1-1-1mdk
title Windows rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1
I would have identical entries in each /boot/grub/menu.lst file for both Mandrake and LFS. This would be done without running <setup>.
Is my logic correct? (Have I begun to learn GRUB :)?
I have something like this for Mandrake
title Mandrake kernel (hd0,12)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda13 devfs=nomount splash=silent initrd (hd0,12)/boot/initrd.img
Yes, you're right , you don't need to run grub, just edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
I have a separate partition with sources, documents, photos and stuff on which doesn't change. I installed grub's menu.lst on that partition so I don't need to reinstall it, I just edit it when needed
