The open or a different question is how to display this state ot the opportinities to the user at the grub screen. Here the help of usebility experts might be the most promising approach.
I believe that simply it adds an entry to the menu with the kernel name and version, probably sorted by age. This is done by a script in the kernel rpm.
This is _currently_ all done with the help of the script hooks (preinstall,postinstall,preuninstall,postuninstall) of the kernel RPM. The question I had in mind was: How to make the install of several kernels _useable_. Like the installation of several window managers. Here I'm at least aware of the configuration opportunities KDM provides to select different WMs. Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany
