How to configure dual boot system with suse and redhat

athv_gr · 01-04-2008, 01:13 PM

I want to have a dual boot system with Suse Enterprise Server 10 and Red Hat Linux Enterprise 4. I first installed Suse and then Red Hat. The problem is that after I installed Red Hat, the machine does not boot the Suse system because the boot loader does not have an entry for it.
Is there any way to add an entry to the Red Hat boot loader (GRUB) in order to be able to boot both systems?
Thanks!

That can be easily done. Post your RedHat /boot/grub/grub.conf file and your suse /boot/grub/menu.lst file and indicate which one is which. You just have to edit your RedHat grub.conf file to add an entry for suse and the suse menu.lst will contain the info you need to do that.
