Actually I think the present situation might really be preferred [by
me]. Much like bringing up the BIOS setup screen with DEL at turn on
I press "F9" and get a boot menu, select the hard drive I want and
proceed with one of the grub screens, different but not a real
problem. I kind of like the idea of completely separate systems. I
also have a copy of F20b in a VMware VM which works well enough using
XFCE instead of the unfathomable Gnome3.
Aahh, finally! Simple is beautiful. "<F12>: BOOT MENU Boot Menu allows
you to set the first boot device without entering BIOS Setup. In Boot
Menu, use the up arrow key <↑> or the down arrow key <↓> to select the
first boot device, then press <Enter> to accept. To exit Boot Menu,
press <Esc>. The system will directly boot from the device configured
in Boot Menu. …" F20!? Not again!
Almost right and that is the way I have done it for years---However---
Ubuntu upgrade from 12.10 to 13.04 found the Fedora 16 and included it
in the Grub boot. Because I forgot to take the side of my computer box
and pull the cable from the hard drive before upgrading.
Now that it's grub has been discombobulated it will not boot from F12.
Good thought though.
