Hi,
I am not a HURD user but I am becoming very interested in GRUB. My immediate
need is for a general purpose bootloader that can be used for a wide variety
of operating systems. I tried to download and install GRUB under Debian GNU
Linux 2.2 (potato) with kernel 2.2.15. I have got these problems now:
1) I can't boot other operating system different from Linux and Windows 95.
I have instaled these operating systems:
a) Solaris 7. LILO record seems like this:
---
other=/dev/hdc2
label=solaris
alias=Solaris7
table=/dev/hdc
---
b) BeOS 4.5.2. LILO record seems like this:
---
other=/dev/hdc3
label=be
alias=BeOS
table=/dev/hdc
---
c) QNX 4.24. LILO record seems like this:
---
other=/dev/hda4
label=qnx
alias=QNX-4.24
table=/dev/hda
---
But I can't make correct records for GRUB for any of these OS. Please, can
somebody help me made these records?
2) I want to boot from floppy, too. I have a record for this in LILO conf:
---
other=/dev/fd0
label=a
alias=floppy
---
But I don't know how can I do this in GRUB. Please, help.
3) Is it possible to boot from CD-ROM (like from floppy, see question #2) with
GRUB? If yes, how can I do this?
Thank you very much for all comments and answers.
Marek
