This is a good idea!
Thanks!

What he might be able to do is to reinstall his debian grub2 after the
Solaris install, then set up a chainloader entry in debian/grub2 to
boot opensolaris/grub and then opensolaris.
installgrub on opensolaris should install grub on both the MBR and the
partition boot record, so he would have debian/grub2 in the MBR, which
chainloads to opensolaris/grub in the partition boot record and then
onto opensolaris.

i dont think that's possible, solaris needs grub, and it needs solaris

Hello,
this is a very newbie question, but I'd need a hint. My Hard Disk is
partitioned as following:
/dev/sda1 --> boot [primary]
/dev/sda2 --> [extended]
/dev/sda5 --> swap [logic]
/dev/sda6 --> debian [logic]
/dev/sda3 --> empty [primary]
I'd like to install opensolaris (osol) in /dev/sda3.
I know that osol uses grub to identify other OSs, but I have grub2 now and I
would not return to the old grub. I was wondering if I can install osol
without installing grub, and hence, without touching my boot partition
(/dev/sda1). If it is possible I will just have to add a script in
/etc/grub.d/ of my debian release to make osol bootable.
So can I avoid to install grub during the osol install procedure? Is it easy to
perform?
Thanks, sorry for the English I use...it is not my language.
Cheers.
