My grub.conf is as follows:
<----------------------------------------------------------------->
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this
file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/Volume00/FedoraTest
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda

initrd (hd0,0)/initrd-2.6.4-54.5-default
<----------------------------------------------------------------->
and I can boot three different Linux distributions on one disk. You have
to adjust the naming of the partitions, because I use LVM.
Good luck
Peter
