Subject: Add FreeBSD to Grub Menu
Dear folks,
I have a machine that has FreeBSD 9 and Fedora 18 Alpha. I try to add
FreeBSD to grub menu and it is failing to add it.
I have added the following to 40_custom
#!/bin/sh
exec tail -n +3 $0
# This file provides an easy way to add custom menu entries. Simply
type the
# menu entries you want to add after this comment. Be careful not to
change
# the 'exec tail' line above.
menuentry "FreeBSD" {
insmod part_msdos
set root='(hd0,msdos3)'
chainloader +1
}
I have carefully read the wiki:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GRUB_2
I have run
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
I only see the default fedora kernel and boot from Spherical Cow. How
can I make sure that the menu entry is added?
Thanks for any and all advice given to address this problem.
Regards,
Antonio
