I've setup a system that has the following O/S installed on a single disk:
-- Windows 2003 Server
-- FreeBSD 4
-- FreeBSD 5
-- SuSE Linux 9 (OpenExchange 4.1)
SuSE comes with grub 0.92. With this version of grub installed I can
boot Windows and SuSE Linux, but not the FreeBSD paritions.
I have tried the following grub commands in menu.lst
title fbsd4
root (hd0,1,a)
kernel /boot/loader
and
title fbsd4
rootnoverify (hd0,1,a)
chainloader +1
The later example works with a similar setup, but using RedHat 9 (Grub
0.93), instead of SuSE.
Installing grub 0.94 from the FreeBSD ports collections, I can boot
Windows, FreeBSD 4, and FreeBSD 5, but not SuSE Linux.
I used the following grub commands in menu.lst
title SuSE Linux
root (hd0,4)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 vga=788
initrd (hd0,4)/boot/initrd
These are the same commands use by SuSE enu.lst to boot itself.
Any recommendations of advice would be greatly appraciate. I can
provide any additional information if needed.
