One cannot simply march into Mordor with only 9 operating systems.

^T3kG33k: Ah! How many do I need in order to march into Mordor?

Unix-based operating systems (including Mac OS X) can each fit happily on an 8-12GB partition.

If you really want to get fancy, you can add a small (1-5GB) /home partition for each of the Unix-based OSes.

And as far as the bootloader, I'd just chainload GRUB, as others have suggested.

Thanks. However, I'd have to say, that with my 1TB hard-drive, that there would be plenty enough space to allow for a 100GB partition for each of my operating systems.



Temüjin: Thanks, already using it! (svn version)

I would like some help (please) in writing the menu.lst so that I can put my custom menu.lst onto the LiveCD.

Please

1. Tell me which LiveCD to use (that will boot into my partitions via GRUB, Lilo or BCD)
2. Write my menu.lst

Thanks in advance,

Hello

I've changed my partitioning schema for various reasons.

Here is my NEW partitioning schema;



Please help me create my menu.lst, so that I can put it into a LiveCD/BootCD which will contain GRUB and allow me to boot into any partition on my 1TB hard-drive, in case something happens to my computer and I can't access the GRUB menu (e.g. Error 17).

Thanks in advance for any help given in creating my menu.lst,
