Initial access is via GRUB where I select Fedora or Windows.
I want to install Solaris 10 1/6 (X64), which, according to
documentation supports GRUB. Has anyone ever done this? Or perhaps
installing some form of Linux and Solaris 10 using GRUB to determine
which system to boot?
BTW: Reason for doing this? I am currently unemployed and need to
keep some of my skills current.
Thank you in advance,

Grub: Grand Unified Boot Loader. Is Solaris similar to BSD? grub may
works directly with BSD, or using a secondary "loader":
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/FreeBSD.html#FreeBSD
A quick google of "grub solaris" returned some hits which indicate to use
chainloader. This is google's top hit:

If you have some time and the desire, then go for it. Test for yourself.
