Well what I finally ended up doing was adding 11.2 to my existing grub menu as a "rootnoverify" chainloader.
Makes you wonder why verify might ever be required, doesn't it?
And yes, the opposite of you, it brings up the new 11.2 grub menu and it can be booted from there. Funny thing is that I can boot the other systems from that menu also.That leads me to believe that the new grub will also boot the ext3 systems.
Why would you think otherwise? Support for mature filesystem types hasn't been dropped.
Oh, you know Felix, Stuff happens and over the years I have come to believe that I am the person to discover it.
Now I'll have to find out why the other os's won't allow the 11.2 partitions to be seen. Because they are ext4?
Of course. Until you furnish them with kernels that support ext4, you're out of luck.
Is there any such animal out there? or are we talking compiling a kernel without knowing if it will work? Bob S -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
