grub2 with other linux
Posted: 12 Feb 2017, 16:27
Hello,
So I followed the instructions but I'm having a problem with the changes:
1- Create a new hd partition for porteus sda5: ext4;
2- Copy the porteus and boot folders to sda5;
3- Edit the /etc/grub.d/40_custom:
4- update the grub
5-Reboot and using porteus but with no changes.
Q: How to keep the changes? Because if I use the porteus linux installer there is no problem but I can't boot the other system. And I'm not using iso's.

linux /porteus/boot/syslinux/vmlinuz from=/dev/sda5/porteus login=
