Help with multiple boot system
After a Knoppix/Windows crash, I reinstalled Knoppix and Windows to the same drive and then
installed Fedora Core 3 to a separate drive. The initial Knoppix/Windows (same drive with LILO) install found
both Knoppix and Windows and had no problem going to either operating system. When I installed Fedora
Core 3 to a separate drive, Grub would only pick up on Windows and Fedora Core 3. How can I find where
Knoppix is at to add it to my choice of operating systems??? What code would I then use to add it to Grub???
Thanks,
Pauly

If you can mount the other hard drive with knx/win, then you need only add some lines to GRUB.CONF. The line for Knoppix will be very similar to the Fedora entry, but on a different "hd."
Use something like this for windows:
Code:
title Windows 2K/XP/2003 (on hdb1)
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
savedefault

It sounds like you over-wrote your existing MBR with Grub when you installed FC. Strange it didn't auto knoppix, seeing as how it did Win.
But, just to add to the above...
---------------------------------
Lilo to Grub hdd translation.
Lilo ---> Grub
---------------------------------
First drive:
hda ---> hd0
First drive, First partition:
hda1 ---> (hd0,0)
First drive, Second partition:
hda2 ---> (hd0,1)
Second drive:
hdb ---> hd1
Second drive, First partition:
hdb1 ---> (hd1,0)
Second drive, Second partition:
hdb2 ---> (hd1,1)
