[15:47] <melissawm> hi guys
[15:47] <melissawm> i need some advice
[15:48] <melissawm> i'm trying a triple boot here: i have vista and jaunty installed, and i would like to install karmic on a spare partition. should i just select the new partition as / and (re)install grub like in a regular ubuntu installation, or should i do something different?
[15:49] <melissawm> i'm reading in the forums some people apparently having trouble with grub x grub2
[15:55] <fader_> melissawm: According to the karmic technical overview, you might have some issues booting Vista if you install in a dual/triple boot
[15:55] <fader_> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KarmicKoala/TechnicalOverview#Known%20issues
[15:56] <fader_> Though there are workarounds detailed in the bug (bug 402795)
[15:56] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 402795 in grub2 "windows option not shown" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/402795
[15:59] <melissawm> thanks... apparently "sudo update-grub2" fixes it then
[16:00] <fader_> melissawm: It seems so... though I'll just reiterate to always have backups ;)
[16:00] <melissawm> no probs, i'm all backed up ;) and frankly if vista disappears it will not be a great loss as i boot on it once every 6 months max... :P
[16:01] <melissawm> thanks guys! i might come back in a while if things go wrong lol
[16:01] <melissawm> have a nice day!
[17:22] <bneff> Trying to test out Karmic Alpha 3 and having display issues during install...any suggestions?
