I'm having some trouble dual booting 2 different Linux distributions (currently FC9 and FC7) on the same disk. I've actually had some success, but it's not set up the way I would like. Any help would be appreciated. I'd like to have it set up like so:/dev/sda1 /boot (boot root partition for Linux distribution #1) /dev/sda2 /boot (boot root partition for Linux distribution #2) /dev/sda3 /home (home directories shared between the two different distributions) /dev/sda4 (extended partition) /dev/sda5 / (kernel root partition for Linux distribution #1) /dev/sda6 / (kernel root partition for Linux distribution #2)
My usual suggestion: get Supergrub (http://www.supergrubdisk.org/), and try manually. There you can type all the commands, you get some feedback, it even supports tab-completion.
I've tried copying the Linux distribution #2 boot files from /dev/sda6 up to /dev/sda1 and making the corresponding change to /dev/sda1's grub.conf file,
I don't think this is going to work. :(
Any help would be appreciated. Obviously I am missing something. What file is not being found, anyway?
