    Hi, I installed Ubuntu yesterday following the recomendations from this web.

    However, I would like to keep Linpus installed, but after installing grub from Ubuntu installation, I'm getting a kernel panic during the Limpus boot.

    Could someone ho have both OS working paste here his /boot/grub/menu.lst ?

    Thanks.

    Well, at the end, after some trial and error, I managed how to configure the menu.lst

    I past here the code:
    This is my Linpus entry
    Code:
    title Linpus Linux RCD
    	rootnoverify (hd0,0)
    	kernel /boot/bzImage ro root=LABEL=linpus vga=0x311 splash=silent loglevel=1 console=tty1 quiet nolapic_timer
      	initrd /boot/initrd-splash.img

    Yes, you must do a:

    Code:
    sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
    Now delete the entry for Linpus and ad this code at the end of the file:

    Code:
    title Linpus Linux RCD
       rootnoverify (hd0,0)
       kernel /boot/bzImage ro root=LABEL=linpus vga=0x311 splash=silent loglevel=1 console=tty1 quiet nolapic_timer
         initrd /boot/initrd-splash.img
    Now should work.
