Re: Re: Dual boot Linux on one box (about partitions)



About dual boot:
I have xp and one linux kind booting on mbr  while linux-one use grub for bootloader for all distros
 
All other kinds of linux distro are not using mbr but boot on there root partion.
That root partion is used in grub menu of the only linux using mbr as boot.
 
So the grub look like this
title what ever it is (it does not matter,only for you to read.
 kernel (hd0,1) /boot/vmlinu
 initrd (hd0,1) /boot/initrd
 
title Windows
root (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
 
title diferent linux
root (hdo,?)
chainloader +1
 
and so on (maybe 20 others?
And the first grub load in all from that bootloader.
greetings Jacob
