It is entirely possible to do this--and not too terribly hard either. First you should install Gentoo on a second partition and install the boot loader (GRUB) to the ROOT PARTION of the Gentoo installation. DO NOT install it to the MBR! Then boot into Fedora and mount the Gentoo partition. Open up Gentoo's "/boot/grub/menu.lst" file and copy the boot entry into the bottom of Fedora's "/boot/grub/menu.lst". It should look something like this:
Code:
# Color Scheme
#color light-gray/blue black/light-gray
# By default, boot the first entry.
default 0
# Boot automatically after 30 secs.
timeout 30
# Fallback to the second entry.
fallback 1
# Splash image
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/bike_gua.xpm.gz
#splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/slack_nalug.xpm.gz
# For booting Linux
title Fedora
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12.5-ck6 root=/dev/hda1 vga=791 initrd=/boot/whatever
title Gentoo
kernel (hd0,1) /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.12.4-ck5 root=/dev/hda2 vga=791 initrd=/boot/whatever
Keep in mind that I don't use Fedora or Gentoo (anthough I've done some tinkering with Fedora), so while this *should* work, you still might want to ask someone who knows the distributions better than I do.
I hope that helps.
