I'd suggest you don't have a separate /boot for gNS (I assume debian has a boot directory of its own). I'd suggest you include the gNS /boot on the gns / partition and configure the grub currently installed (which i assume is debians) to add gns as a boot option. You will probably want to copy 10_linux or 20_linux_xen (in /etc/grub.d) and customise from there. thanks, kk -- Karl Goetz, (Kamping_Kaiser / VK7FOSS) http://www.kgoetz.id.au No, I won't join your social networking group *** I've changed GPG key to 6C097260 ***
