Re: Can grub be made to talk?

Thanks very much.  I suspected that but it looks like I don't
have to make a duel-boot system afterall.  Someone on the debian
list suggested I use a chroot jail to encapsulate the old
distribution which, in this case, should solve the problem I was
trying to solve in the first place.

	If it doesn't turn out to work, I still have all the
pieces so it is worth the try.
