Hi,
I'm installing Ubuntu 9.10 on my brand new Laptop. I'm planning to install several OS' on it. Using the legacy GRUB that was a matter of having a separate /boot partition and updating the menu.lst file when a new OS was installed, no big deal. But the new Grub2 boot loader got me puzzled.
My question would be: In order for Grub2 to manage several OS', which partitions should I create in advance?. How is the updating procedure carried out?
Thanks,
--Omar
