Well, in the interests of accuracy, what I heard was closer to what Punky said. The info I received wasn't that grub couldn't do it as such, it was more that it might not handle more than 1 instance of Linux automatically & that I might have to go delving into config files or whatever to sort it out. It's been quite a while since I did anything more indepth with Linux than the brief fiddle I had with the Ubuntu Live CD last week, & I remember finding things like the directory structure/filing system/whatever rather confusing. That's why I was hoping for something that could do what I wanted automatically without me having to "get my hands dirty", as it were, until I'm more familiar with Linux in general.

But I don't know whether GRUB will be able to differentiate between the Ubuntu kernel and the Kubuntu kernel. Aren't they the same?
(I'm asking - I don't know the answer)

I don't plan [ATM] on running Ubuntu & Kubuntu, I'm planning on having 2 versions [32 & 64bit] of Kubuntu. As for the difference between Ubuntu & Kubuntu, I probably know the least about Linux out of everyone in this thread, so it's very possible that I'm wrong with this, but from what I've read/heard the main [only?] difference between Ubuntu & Kubuntu is that Ubuntu uses Gnome & Kubuntu uses KDE.
