[gentoo-user] multiple kernels in grub

2005-08-11 Thread John Dangler








I manually configured a kernel during the install and went
back afterward and added a genkernel version since I was having a few problems
during boot (resolution, network, etc).



In /boot, I have both linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 and
kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r6.

In /boot/grub/grub.conf, only the genkernel is listed

During startup, only the linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 kernel shows
on the grub menu

/usr/src does not contain the genkernel build.



Im sure I did something wrong, but I dont want
to start over. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Just edit /boot/grub/grub.conf.

You can read about how in the - Configuring the Bootloader section of
the installation manual -

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1chap=10

Just add the 3 lines necessary with the definition of the second kernel.  
Something
like - 



-- title=Gentoo 2.6.12-r4
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.12-gentoo-r4 root=/dev/hda3 


title=Gentoo 2.6.11-r11
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-gentoo-r11 root=/dev/hda3
