small history,<br><br>I am using Ubuntu Studio for a year now, and with the release of 9.04 Jaunty, I decided to do a clean install of it. <br>As for a long time a wanted to try Studio64, I decided to partition my hard disk and install that as well (Studio64 2.1) <br>
I also like and need Frescobaldy, but I just couldn't install it on a Debian platform, so I decided to make one more partition and install Open Suse 11.1. <br>Finally, I made one more partition for future OS tests and one partition for the files.<br>
All in all, on my 500gb hard disk I created 6 partitions and installed the OS's in the following order:<br>50gb partition 1 : Ubuntu Studio<br>50gb partition 2: Open Suse<br>50gb partition 3: Studio64<br>50gb partition 4: empty<br>
180gb partition 5: files<br>20gb partition 6: swap<br><br>Now, of course, every OS created it's own boot loader and when I finally installed Studio64, although it recognised the other OS's, and gave me the option to boot into them, a Grub error 12 would appear (no files).<br>
<br>Browsing Forums, I bumped across Grub Super Disk and I am able to boot into every single OS from there. But alas, I am not literate enough to create a valid menu.lst on the master boot record.<br><br>I would appreciate any hints or (links to) simple and clear instructions on the net. I am ready to reinstall all the OS's if needed. I start to understand that a small separate /boot partition would be very useful, but I don't have a clue how to set it up.<br>
