    sda6= Jaunty ext3 grub legacy.
    sda7= Karmic ext4 grub2 on sda's mbr.
    All os's boot and all partitions mount. From the start Jaunty's boot time increased to around 35 seconds. Ran bootchart on Jaunty to see where the bottleneck was; attached to post (right-click/save image as).

    grub.cfg...
    Karmic
    Code:
    menuentry "Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.31-15-generic" {
            recordfail=1
            if [ -n ${have_grubenv} ]; then save_env recordfail; fi
    	set quiet=1
    	insmod ext2
    	set root=(hd1,7)
    	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 3b0453ab-a2ad-420f-88ad-7d79a722cc47
    	linux	/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-15-generic root=UUID=3b0453ab-a2ad-420f-88ad-7d79a722cc47 ro  splash quiet  quiet splash
    	initrd	/boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-15-generic
    Jaunty
    Code:
    menuentry "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-16-generic (on /dev/sdb6)" {
    	insmod ext2
    	set root=(hd1,6)
    	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 55357815-4cd9-4d5d-8696-234afcd7c0e3
    	linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-16-generic root=/dev/sda6 ro quiet splash
    	initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-16-generic
    How could an install increase another distro's boot time? I know I shouldn't complain but it seems kind of odd.
