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 he can how would he go about putting a bootable copy of grub on a CD ?
I think you could tell Yast to install grub on a floppy. When that works, you burn a CD (with k3b, for instance) telling it to use the floppy as an "El Torito" boot image. The actual data of the CD doesn't matter (maybe you have to 'dd' the floppy to a file first). Of course, he needs a floppy drive first... And I haven't tried this procedure with Linux, only with msdos; so I can't certify it works. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
