- -- Chris, This works on several of my hosts. I do not get an innitial kernel selection screen, but if you hit F3 (and read) you can select one of the several flavors of boot-disks.. REAL COOL ! If this works for others, I am in favor of removing the MULTIBOOT option from boot-i386, as it only seemed to work on some BIOS's. This also gets to where we should be, at least the option of a 2.4.x kernel on CD#1 ! Good work.
