RedHat Grub Mandrake Boot Problem
RedHat Grub Mandrake Boot Problem
RedHat Mandrake Grub Boot Problem:
Soyo K7V Dragon Plus Motherboard (able to boot from any drive)
I keep all Operating System boot loaders on the actual disk.
Have Mandrake 9.1 & RedHat 9.0 installed on HDD2 (secondary slave).
BIOS is set to boot from built in Promise Controller (SCSI). Mandrake sees this during install > RedHat does not > thus Mandrake sees the drive as /dev/hdh & Redhat as /dev/hdd.
Mandrake intalled first with (/,swap,/usr,/var,/home/tmp) then Redhat with same division of partitions. Root for Mandrake is hdh1 & for Redhat hdd10.
I am trying to get the RedHat Grub bootloader (installed on the drive MBR) to load Mandrake as I like the RedHat Grub boot GUI better than the Mandrake grub GUI. I have not been able to get it to work. Below are the respective menu.1st files:
Mandrake 9.1:
timeout 10

i18n (hd0,0)/boot/grub/messages
keytable (hd0,0)/boot/us.klt

Always using last entry (updated kernel).
RedHat 9.0:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
# root (hd0,9)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hdd10
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hdd
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,9)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.20-19.9)
root (hd0,9)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-19.9 ro root=LABEL=/1 hdc=ide-scsi
initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.20-19.9.img

root (hd0,9)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 ro root=LABEL=/1 hdc=ide-scsi

What do I need to do to get the RedHat Grub Bootloader to boot Mandrake? Some Append Info? If so what?
Stumped!!
