Solaris Dual boot

Frankly, I am new to Solaris world.

I read many documents regarding Dual boot with Solaris and windows and Linux. But none of them are clear.

I am facing problem.

I divided my HDD( one ) as following:

1 Primarywindows Fat32

2 PrimaryLunix RH FC5

3 PrimarySolaris 10

4 Extended Lunix Swap Paritition.

I am able to boot Solaris and windows, but Linux disappeared and it is not in the menu or Solaris boot loader.

How I can make boot Linux.

Many thanks in Advanced.

should be a file /etc/grub.conf (linux) or somewhere in /boot, add an entry for linux and try. maybe a different name modified by Sun. use man grub

i am not sure if it can work. i am using btmagic for the master boot, then grub on each partition. it should work as both linux and solaris are using grub now. I installed the solaris on another disk as i do not have time to try the solaris 10 new release can shared with linux and windows on same disk now.
