the instructions provided to dual-boot Batocera and Ubuntu work great.
I’m poking around /etc/grub.d in Ubuntu and wondering if there is a way to boot multiple versions of Batocera off the same partition?
I notice I can create “51_batocera_v36” and create a new GRUB menu item that selects a different kernel like Ubuntu does:
#!/bin/bash
cat << EOF
menuentry "batocera.linux v36 (same partition)" {
search --set=root --label BATOCERA
linux /boot/linux.v36 label=BATOCERA console=tty3 loglevel=0 vt.global_cursor_default=0
initrd /boot/initrd.gz.v36
}
EOF
it loads the new kernel just fine but then I realize I can’t specify a “batocera.v36” image file.
any GRUB geeks out there get something like this working on Ubuntu by chance?
I technically have a double partition Batocera boot [as in 2 separate boot partitions w v35 and v36 using the same SHARE partition] setup working and ran into a weird busybox quirk that I won’t get into details here and decided to explore this other route.
