Go ahead and install rhe (oooh can't beleive I said that ) and put GRUB in the MBR. GRUB is smart and will find your Knoppix install. You can always run update-grub too.
I have successfully put knoppix 3.6 on my box, now I want to set up an rhe3 rebuild (centos-3) on the 15gig I left for that purpose. Running the installer is easier enough, but I'm at a loss for booting. Knoppix defaults to lilo; rhe to grub. Have any of y'all out there already done this?
Here's my thinking...switch from lilo to grub on the knoppix, then I can follow this tutorial: http://www.pcquest.com/content/searc...sp?artid=58131
All pointers appreciated!

Yes indeedy, grub sees knoppix. Cool so far. But when I select knoppix I get the followingOriginally Posted by mzilikazi
So currently no knoppix.Code:Booting 'knoppix' rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 Error 12: Invalid or unsupported executable format
It's a 40 gig drive; partitions like so:
hda1-6
1 100m /boot (knoppix)
2 19g / (knoppix)
3 500m swap
4 extended
5 100m /boot (rhe)
6 19g /
Now I'm thinking it was a mistake to separate out the /boot for each since I'm using grub in the MBR, but, honestly, I'm in the deep-end, competence wise, and if there's a good faq or howto I should be looking at I won't be offended. Googling for info on two versions of linux isn't tremendously fruitful...all the dual-boot docs are about win/lin.
I wouldn't be mucking about with rh at all if that weren't the target for testing...
Boot into rhe and use update-grub.
OR
I don't use the chainloader but rather specify which partition and kernel I want to boot in /boot/grub/menu.lst like so:
