Hi, Does anyone have reliable experience working with the new Linux grub version 2, at all? I am trying to dual boot Opensolaris 2009.06 with Ubuntu 9.10 and it is more tricky to edit the new version Linux grub menu versus the old. I don't want to trash my install in the process....
Unfortunately, I installed Opensolaris first and then Linux, so the grub menu is showing from Linux and boots into Linux only. It might have been better to install opensolaris second and modify its grub to see the Linux install. unfortunately ZFS and EXT4 file systems don't talk very well to each other.... I am fairly new to Linux/Unix so if you know a definite way to do this can you please put the exact lines etc. that need to be added to the grub2 menu to recognize opensolaris. Have 80gb hd on notebook split in half..First partition is opensolaris, second is Ubuntu 9.10 with included swap file. Thanks. Really don't want to hose either install with my lack of experience. Thanks in advance! Is it possible in the meantime to boot into my Opensolaris install on the hard drive from the live CD? If so, can you please post the exact steps. I tried something but got an Error 15, I recall.... Thanks and Happy New Year! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
