GRUB question

[Jason Wigen]

I am a network admin at a local community college in San Diego. I have been tasked with creating a multi-purpose lab that will house about 30+ computers. This computer lab is used for many different classes from basic keyboarding to advanced CISCO courses. In the past I have had a multi-boot system using GRUB with LINUX/WIN98/NT/XP. This has worked great for quite awhile now. Next semester they want to add a Solaris UNIX class as part of the CISCO course curriculum to teach the CDE interface. 

 

Can GRUB be used to boot a Solaris 8 UNIX partition? If so can you point me in the right direction for some documentation? All I am finding online so far are "I have never used GRUB to boot Solaris...." type docs. 

 

I am a big GRUB fan and would like to continue to use it in my classrooms. Thanks in advance for your help.
