Edit Grub? help!
Please help!
I have installed 5 Linux OS in the following order:
1st : OpenSUSE 11.0
2nd : Ubuntu 8.4
3rd : Ubuntu 8.10
4th : OpenSUSE 11.1
5th : Fedora 10
Here is the scenario, at the 4th installation i can still choose which OS to boot as what OpenSUSE grub displays. Now, after installing Fedora 10 all grub OS's choice are not displayed as it will only boot to Fedora.
Now, can i brought back or restore the OpenSUSE grub OS options by editing grub?
And how to do it? As I am new to linux.
