Hello.

I have been using GRUB only for a short while, and yet I find it very
useful.  So much that I wanted to report you my success booting BeOS
and OpenBSD.  I thought you'd like to know.

To boot BeOS 5.0 (first HDD, second primary partition, native BeOS
installation, BeOS fs - EB):

   # For booting BeOS
   root (hd0,1)
   chainloader +1

I had some problems booting OpenBSD 2.7 `out of the manual' (info
pages).  Using the NetBSD configuration scheme, there was a little
annoying error message:

         `Your boot is too old. Please update it.'

(Or something very similar to it).  So (my OpenBSD partition lives on
my first HDD, first partition):

    # For booting OpenBSD
    root (hd0,0,a)
    chainloader +1 /boot

GNU/Linux and (of course) GNU/Hurd (second HDD, first logical and
second HDD, seventh logical partition respectively), run smoothly.

Thanks for this great program (and excuse my poor English).


Regards,
