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.

mhc(5) File Formats Manual mhc(5)
NAME
mhc - Message Harmonized Calendaring system
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the mhc file format. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the
original program does not have a manual page.
FIELDS
Mhc file format is based on STD11/RFC822: Standard for the format of ARPA Internet text messages. In mhc file, the following extra header
fields are used.
X-SC-Day:
Date of event in format yyyymmdd. You can specify multiple date with space separated like:
X-SC-Day: 19990409 19990413
which means April 9th 1999 and April 13th 1999.
X-SC-Time:
Time of event in format hh:mm-hh:mm or hh:mm. For event which has no meanings about time, you can leave it empty in this field.
X-SC-Duration:
Period of event in yyyymmdd-yyyymmdd. You can omit start date or end date, like "19991121-". X-SC-Duration: is used only to limit
date specified by X-SC-Day: or X-SC-Cond, so you can't describe event date only by X-SC-Duration:. If X-SC-Duration: is empty, it
means no limit.
X-SC-Cond:
Condition of event date by using following keyword.
00-31 Day of month.
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th Last Week in month.
Sun Mon ... Sat Day of week.
Jan Feb ... Dec Month
Examples,
X-SC-Cond: Tue Fri
Every Tuesday and Friday.
X-SC-Cond: 31 Aug
Every August 31th.
X-SC-Cond: 1st 3rd Fri
Every 1st and 3rd Friday.
X-SC-Cond: Fri
X-SC-Day: !19990409
Every Friday, but except April 9th 1999.
X-SC-Cond: Fri 13
Every 13th and Every Friday, not 13th Friday.
X-SC-Alarm:
Hint for alarm of event. Currently, mhc.el doesn't alaram, but gemcal will pop-up alarm window. It will be useful if you transfer
this event to PalmOS. In X-SC-Alarm:, you can specify the number (1 to 99) with suffix such as minute, hour or day. For example,
X-SC-Alarm: 10 minutes
Alarm 10 minutes before event.
X-SC-Alarm: 3 hour
Alarm 3 hours before event.
X-SC-Alarm: 3 day
Alarm 3 day before event.
X-SC-Subject:
Subject of event. unstructured?
X-SC-Location:
Location of event. unstructured?
X-SC-Category
Category of event. Any keyword, space separeated. Case ignored.
X-SC-Recoard-Id:
Internal use only.
