http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/11289/how-to-install-fedoraubuntu-with-encrypted-vgs-on-one-disk/11509#11509
but there are still 2 questions regarding it...can anyone answer them?
Thank you!!
I was away and just got back, but looking at your forum link and your
(badly unthreaded) posts, I just have one question.
After all these, did you go to fedora and update-grub or grub-install?
Understood the following....
o Ubuntu /boot is in separate partition, sda1, and not encrypted.
o Fedora /boot is encrypted
o You can finally boot into Ubuntu with some modifications to Fedora
menu.lst (I am surprised, really, without the root=xxxx in kernel line
or without chainloading). Okay, sub-question...do you want Ubuntu's grub
to set to mbr? Then, after booting Ubuntu, why not just "sudo
grub-install /dev/sda"?
Caveats-
o I do not have experience with Fedora, Red hat years ago is forgotten.
o I do not have experience with encyption, but understand grub2 works
well now without hassle.
Confession-
o I reply to you as no one else did (considering I do not have
experience with Fedora, encryption, raid or lvm)
As to your 2 questions,
o already mentioned, I am surprised it boots at all, you should need at
least root=/dev/sda1 in it. It's okay without ro splash or quiet. Or at
least use chainloading to the Ubuntu grub. But then, again mentioned, I
have no experience with Fedora and the grub-legacy used may work
differently.
o When Ubuntu kernel is upgraded, you should also amend the Fedora
menu.lst with it.
