I used a dirty trickOpensuse 13.2 to resolve this:
Running Leap 42.1 on the sda1, I mounted the sdb1 on /mnt, and copied the principal section of Opensuse 13.2 from the file /boot/grub/grub.cfg (sdb1 hd) inside the file /etc/grub.d/40_custom (sda1 hd)
I'm doing it differently. I use the grub "configfile" command to run the "grub.cfg" from the other linux. So 40_custom for Leap 42.1 has a few lines to boot 13.2: --- cut here --- ### Entry to boot opensuse 13.2 on sdb2 menuentry "configfile for opensuse 13.2 on /dev/sdb2" { set bootdir='hd2,gpt2' search --fs-uuid --set=bootdir 7668845f-5c7e-4fc7-93b2-ddd398765b2e configfile (${bootdir})/boot/grub2/grub.cfg } --- cut here ---
It searches by UUID to find the partition. Then loads the "grub.cfg" using "configfile".
The downside is that this uses two menu screens. On the plus side, it is fine with kernel updates, because it is loading the "grub.cfg" which has already been updated for the new kernel.
Thank You! I said "a dirty method". With no kernel updates on the older system, it works ok. I will try Your method with time. Regards, Juan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
