How do I boot up In Grub2 If It is using grub legacy now ?
I have Sidux installed on sda1 (hd0,1) and Parsix 3.0 on sdb1 (hd1,1).
Sidux uses grub legacy and Parsix Grub2. I had sidux installed but just recently added Parsix 3.0 and put grub2 on the root partition. Sidux grub is also installed on the root partition. After I got done installing Parsix my computer still boots up using grub legacy from the sidux partition. Is there a way to to get it to use grub2 from the Parsix partition ? I used to do this with the Grub Super Disk but I guess it does not recognize grub2. I have searched and read many-many doc's and articles on grub2 but have not found anything yet on what I am trying to accomplish. |
The only way I have read is by chainloading. By chainloading it should work either way.

I was able to use a Grub2 boot loader menu on my computer instead of the grub legacy menu that I was booting up, it was easier than I thought.
First I booted into the partition that had Grub2 installed, then in a terminal: Code:
# grub-install /dev/sd? sd? would be the drive where I have grub2 installed. Then the next time I booted up l was seeing the Grub2 boot loader menu instead of the menu from my other Linux distro that was using grub legacy. This is what I was trying to accomplish. To make all of my other Linux distros show up in my Grub2 boot loader menu, again I booted into the partition where my Grub2 was installed and then entered: Code:
# os-prober I rebooted and my new Grub2 boot loader menu showed all of my other Linux distros on this computer. |
