I think you are talking about manual partitioning here? That's the only way I know too. Modifying your steps a bit might make it easier: — install Qubes to sda6 without the boot loader — boot your primary Linux OS (the one that originally set up GRUB on your HDD) — run grub-mkconfig and/or edit grub.cfg manually to add entry for Qubes — then Qubes should be bootable from sda6 via chainloading -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I think you're talking about the manual partitioning step here? That's the only way I know how too. Modifying your steps a bit might make it easier: — install Qubes to sda6 without the boot loader — boot from your primary existing Linux install — run grub-mkconfig and/or edit grub.cfg manually to add an entry for Qubes — then Qubes should be bootable from sda6 via chainloading -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Installing the boot loader to /dev/sda6 instead of /dev/sda
Is there a way to specify that the boot loader will be installed to a partition, i.e. /dev/sda6 instead of to /dev/sda during Qubes 4.0 install? I couldn't figure it out in the install menu, the only thing I can select is not to install the boot loader to /dev/sda—which would be fine, if I can then do it later. The reason I want to do this is I want to just experiment with Qubes, so want to keep my MBR as is, boot to other GNU systems, and when I want to play with Qubes, I'll chainload its boot partition from the regular GRUB I use—for this the boot loader needs to be installed to Qubes's partition. The only way of achieving it now—that I can think of is: — install Qubes to sda6 without the boot loader — install it again to a USB — boot from the USB — run grub-install to the /dev/sda6 — I'm assuming Qubes uses GRUB — I've never used Qubes before — then Qubes should be bootable from sda6 via chainloading Any easier way to do this? -- 白い熊 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
