Description Jason Knight 2006-03-22 06:00:35 UTC 
Description of problem:
In anaconda, when installing grub, it should detect and place boot entries for
all detected operating systems on the system. Could even just reuse already
existing configuration of Grub (if found) and add its own entry (while stealing
the config file for its own install and removing any entries that will be
obsoleted by the format). 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
FC5 Release

both SUSE and Ubuntu do this in their install default, so why not Fedora?

We already do this.  What is your partitioning scheme and what do you already
have installed?
