Hello All,

I have a friend who is trying Linux after listening to me go on about how good and stable it is for a few years. He is happy to install to a partition on his harddrive but is not happy to have grub in his mbr.

So my question is can grub be put onto a CD so if he wants to boot into linux he puts the CD in to the drive and let it boot into linux ?


If you've ever installed SuSE off of a CD or DVD, the boot
screen has the following options

 [  ]   Boot Installed System
 [  ]   Memtest86
 [  ]   Install SuSE Linux
 [  ]   Safe Install SuSE Linux

 [the last option being one with the noapic and another option
  which prevents problems with older motherboards]

So just use a SuSE install CD as a boot CD.


If he can how would he go about putting a bootable copy of grub on a CD ?


It's already on the SuSE install CD/DVD
