I'm sorry. I have one 1Tbyte, divided into two equal partitions, and one 80 gig hard drive installed. Windows and Kubuntu live on the 1Tbyte and openSuse is on the 80 gig. I had XP on the 80 gig drive before.
I've had as many as five hard drives in this thing at different times. This computer has four SATA, two IDE and a floppy connector on the mother board. The trick is to find places to put the drives. I just have to get creative.*<]:oD
this configuration is specially tricky, as IDE and SATA drives sometime mixup very badly - that is the disk name can change from ubuntu to opensuse through windows. so, In my opinion, the best way is (on openSUSE) * search google with "findgrub opensuse", you will find the english pages of the openSUSE member "please_try_again" that did a fantastic job on the grub subject * download the findgrub utility (or whatever name he have now - I used it 6 month ago) * go to /boot/grub and copy menu.lst to menu.lst.backup or whaever name you want, just in case * run findgrub there is an interactive option, and even a test one (no writing). The only drawback is that findgrub may add irrelevant entries, that is not all the entries are real OS installs, but normally it finds reallly all what is necessary after that you can edit manually menu.lst and comment out unusable entries, you have only to remember that the default entry is numbered as "default X" on top of menu.lst, X being the entry number numbered from 0 jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
