Re: [opensuse] Installling a second OS...

I am lazy. Too lazy to configure grub.

I have 3 hdd's in this box: WinXP, Suse9.1 and Suse 10.2

The arrangement is "temporary", meaning that I might decide to change it
tomorrow or maybe not for a year. If I want to boot to either Suse9.1 or
WinXP, I simply re-boot the puter and with very few keystrokes tell the
BIOS which drive is "auto" instead of "none" and viola! up it comes in
that system.

If I went thru the effort of configuring grub it would be an affirmation
that the arrangement is no longer "temporary".

So, I guess not only lazy but mental as well.

ps - have tried vmware, parallels and wine for various Windows apps and
vmware is king with parallels running second. Parallels price is right but
it's functionality is not all there yet. Results with wine are mixed, at
best.
