+Different problem. Grub 1 can not be expected to know about
+Grub 2. Grub 2 should know how to handle a Grub 1 system, but
+doesn't.
+
+There are many many ways to get around this, so many that it
+gets confusing sorting out which method to choose. One of the
+more explainable methods is to make a habit of installing
+systems with boot loaders in their own root partition rather
+than in the mbr. Then you are left with the comparatively
+simple problem of having something in the mbr be able to find
+all of the other boot loaders.
+
+eg. Starting with one distibution on your system, let's call
+it A, with a boot loader in the mbr. Install distribution B
+with its own boot loader in its own root partion. Reconfigure
+A's boot loader so that it can chain B's boot loader. Next
+time you reboot you should see A's Lilo/Grub1/Grub2 screen
+with a menu item for B (plus all of the original A options)
+select B and then you should see a second boot loader, for B.
+
+You might need to look up &quot;chain&quot;.
+
+In Lilo you want something like:
+
+other=/dev/sda11
+ label=&quot;sda11_test&quot;
+ optional
+
+In Grub 1 you want something like:
+
+title m1_grub
+root (hd0,8)
+chainloader +1
+
+You might get what you want by using Mageia's Control Center
+and selecting &quot;Other&quot; operating systems - assuming that the
+other installations already have a boot loader in their
+respective root directories.
