Hi!
Ok, so I decided to get brave and install Mandriva on the 10GB partition I'd been saving up for a rainy day. Mandriva uses KDE by default, so while I mounted the /home, I created a new username so that I wouldn't nuke my current Lucid Kubuntu settings. It's all good; my data from my other username is in /home and I do like Mandriva. Here's the issue.
My Mandriva install is at / in the extra partition I created when I partitioned this drive. Kubuntu is my default OS, and when I installed it, I mounted this extra partition at /altos so I could look at it (I presume when I boot back into Kubuntu that all the Mandriva goodness will be there for me to poke about in as well).
Where is my boot option? I am not good with the Grub--why don't I have an option to boot into Kubuntu or Mandriva? Mandriva is playing like it's my default OS; I never see an option to boot into Kubuntu. Do I need to edit my Grub?
I'm going to cross post this at the Mandriva forum too--maybe they know what up.
Thanks!
