Hi,
I'd like to run 2 linux distros on the same partition.
I have gentoo in / and arch in /arch.
I thought I could make a second grub entry pointing to /arch/boot/vmlinux26
and /arch/boot/kernel26.img and just hack-up the initcpio image to do a
chroot just before passing control to archlinux's init. I found however that
that the mounting and chrooting are done by kinit, rather than by the init
shell-script in the initcpio, making this harder than expected.
Can someone offer an easy way to achieve my desired behavior? preferably
without having to hack at the klibc source?
Thanks,
nbags.
