Start Jas Tiger 10.4.8 with GRUB2?

[Laszlo Lebrun]

Hi Group,

Has someone successfully started Jas Tiger 10.4.8 with GRUB2?

 

I struggle currently with this triple boot and am stuck on setting GRUB2 to boot Jas Tiger 10.4.8 correctly.

 

The automatic OS-Prober record of GRUB2 begins a boot but ends up with a kernel panic.

 

Currently I use GRUB2 to chose between Linux and Windows, and use chain0 in the Windows bootloader to start OSX. It works, but the process is a bit unclean.

 

I really preferred to start OSX directly from GRUB.

 

I made another attempt with removing all the OS-Prober stuff and setting the 40_custom file with:

------

menuentry "Mac OS X (on /dev/sda4)" {

insmod hfsplus

set root=(hd0,4)

# search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 88ba7191-8318-3548-8744-f1e6b1063408

# drivemap -s (hd0) ${root}

chainloader +1

------

GRUB was however not happy at all with the found HFS+ partition.

 

Has someone got this stuff done?

I'd highly appreciate your hints.

 

Regards

Laszlo
