Hi Iwan!

I have read that SUSE uses a modified GRUB to do what you see:

http://mirror.href.com/thestarman/asm/mbr/GRUB.htm

Now messing with GRUB is dangerous stuff.  If you have an old computer
around it would be interesting to see if a SUSE GRUB could launch FC5
(I do not see why not) and if the splash graphics could be changed out
to Fedora.

Probably could be done without too much trouble.

Please let me know if you do, I am working on a "Boot Camp"
presentation for our local LUGs and this would be in interesting bit!

Thanks!

Tod
