Hi Stefan,
I followed your advice and think I did it right. Here is the first
passage of the menu.lst for Grub:
# Modified by YaST2. Last modification on Sa Apr 19 20:52:38 CEST 2008
default 0
timeout 8
gfxmenu (hd2,0)/boot/message
###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux###
title openSUSE 10.3
root (hd2,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.17-0.1-default
root=/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_SAMSUNG_HD321KJS0MQJ1GP504224-part1
resume=/dev/sdc2 splash=silent clock=hpet showopts
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.22.17-0.1-default
###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name:
openSUSE 10.2 - 2.6.18.8-0.9 (/dev/sdb5)###
title openSUSE 10.2 - 2.6.18.8-0.9 (/dev/sdb5)
rootnoverify (hd0,4)
chainloader +1
...
...
But checking the result is disappointing. I did it after 3 boot cycles
(2 reboot and one "cold" boot):
dhcppc2:/home/georg # cat
/sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
tsc
May be my OpenSUSE is lacking something? Ok, at least it was worth
trying and I learned something new.
Even if you should have no further ideas I want to thank you for help,
very nice!
Regards
Georg
