hard drive install

When I did the hard drive install, I wasn't given the option to install grub to the MBR on my hda.  The system was installed on my usb external drive, sda2. During the install the grub was installed on sda instead of hda.  The boot record of my system is on hda which includes my lubuntu installation.  I was hoping the grub menu would automatically include ubuntu.  Let me know if you wish more information.

Thanks!  Richard

Re: hard drive install

Hello Richard

When you install Slitaz on sda2 don't tick grub. Reboot from hda (Ubuntu) and add an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst like this

title Slitaz(sda2)

root (hd1,1)

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.2-slitaz root=/dev/sda2 ro quiet

Reboot, with the usb key plugged in.

May be you'll have to adapt it.

Slitaz-4.0 same as above except kernel name: vmlinuz-2.6.37-slitaz
