> Why don't you just have ONE boot partition? > Surely that is the norm if one is running different systems. I have a single boot partition that is basically just a grub partition. The only thing I have in the grub menu is a batch of chainloader specs to go boot the other operating systems I have in their own independent partitions (when installing grub on them, I use whatever advanced option is needed to tell it to install in the boot partition, NOT the MBR). This works out very nicely because doing things like updating kernels in one OS doesn't screw around with my master grub menus, each OS is self contained and free to update its own copy of grub.conf or menu.1st (whatever that OS happens to call it).
