By the way you were right with your LILO entry like : other=/dev/where_my_GRUB_is label=fedora but I was not able to properly configure GRUB files to have it running well ; it is hanging ; "grub-install" works fine but I am not sure it builds correctly the files : it just builds from some configuration files you edit first ; do you knowx of a GRUB editor allowing choice of kernel to build a correct GRUB configuration with all the wished entries ?
