Hello,
I apologize if this is the wrong list, but this is the list I have found
through my searches. Please tell me where to go if this is not the
proper place.
I would like to have grub do a conditional statement similar to this:
if file_name on /dev/cdrom matches file_name on /dev/sda1 (USB device)
then
boot Linux else boot Windows
I've search through the Grub site and see there is some support for
scripting,
but I don't know how developed it is and if it can do what I'm asking. At
the
boot loader stage can it even see the cdrom or USB?
I also saw in the older Grub archives ....
"For scripting support, there are a lot of uses. For example booting a
specific OS depending on the time. Some people requested that. If
you look in the pupa-devel archives, you can find the examples Okuji
gave."
But, I can't find the pupa-devel archives, they seem to be off-line.
I'm using CentOS 5.0 and if I can do it with Grub 0.97 that comes with
the
distro that would be great. I can also upgrade if needed.
Any comments or direction would be much appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Antonio
