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 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
