[Fwd: Dual 64/32 SuSE possible with same filesystem? Can you boot ISO images with Grub?]
-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Dual 64/32 SuSE possible with same filesystem? Can you boot ISO images with Grub? Date: Sun, 15 Jan 2006 14:06:36 -0500 From: Adam Vazquez Kb2jpd <adamvaz@earthlink.net> To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Hello to all on the list from Adam in NYC I am running SuSE 10.0 (32 bit install) on an emachines M6805 Athlon 64. My 64,000 dollar question is: How can you dual-boot on a pre-existing 32 bit filesystem to a 64 bit and how can you do it? Actually I am using GRUB and I have Windows XP 32 Home installed on it. Can you re-use the same root system for the 64 bit kernel? I have been using the Ubuntu LiveCD for A64 and it runs great. However, it does not have the tohd= and fromhd= options from Knoppix installed. 2nd question is: How can you, using GRUB, boot off of an CD ISO on the root filesystem? If so, how and if you have a URL, please point the way. If I can't do it one way, I am trying to do it the other way. Thanks in advance. Adam SuSE 10.0 FDNY EMSC
