(MBR or Root partition?) If - as I did with Ubuntu 12.01 - GRUB2 goes into the MBR, then I can no longer boot from its menu into a GRUB Legacy install, a I said earlier (despite the GRUB2 boot menu purporting to do so). ><i> Once it's installed read /usr/share/doc/grub2/README.Mageia to find how to </I>><i> add an entry to your existing menu.lst to boot into the new grub2 menu </I>><i> from your existing legacy grub. </I> As I said earlier, I already know how to do that.
