Will Ubuntu 10.10 detect Mandriva 2009
Asked by
Darrell Barabash
My main OS is Mandriva 2009 which uses GRUB (legacy) boot loader. I want to switch to Ubuntu but see that it will overwrite GRUB with GRUB2. If I allow this, will Mandriva 2009 be detected and loadable? I need to keep Mandriva my main OS and not switch completely until I see that Ubuntu meets my needs.
The other possibility is to not overwrite (only option looks to be to install grub2 in /) but then will I be able to boot Ubuntu from the GRUB loader?
Grub problems are scary to me so I am being very cautious. Thanks kindly!
