I've got SuSE 9.1 installed in my Sun box. I'm trying to install Solaris x86 also and dual boot. Solaris will go on a slave drive. My fear is if I install Solaris will it overwrite my GRUB?

Thanks, Tom

Even if Grub is overwritten, it's easy enough to repair.

It's depend ¿did you install GRUB on MBR or not? GRUB installed on MBR will be overwriten but is not very important. Two cases: 1) If you install Solaris first and after that SuSE, you have no problems with GRUB. 2) If you don't want to reinstall SuSE it's no problem. Install Solaris as usual, after that reboot you box from SuSE-CD1 and go to repair installed SO option and you can recreate GRUB adding solaris as a entry. Byes I beg your pardon from my poor english. El Jueves, 2 de Septiembre de 2004 21:16, Tom Nielsen escribió:
