Temat: Re: [dyne:bolic] grub and docking and madness
If any are curious, I solved this problem with a really lame
workaround... I installed Ubuntu on the system, then dynebolic, then
added the kernel info for dynebolic to the ubuntu grub menu.1st file as
the first (0) item. Totally lame, but it totally works.
