Oops. I did sumting wronk. :(

Installed Fedora, rebooted, and it went to Arch's grub screen. I installed Fedora's boot loader on /dev/sdb, its own drive. Should I have installed it to /dev/sda (Arch's drive)? And, to the MBR, or where?

This *may* be up Rolf's alley? Not sure?

Posted a thread in the Help section...

Thanks.

It is that simple! And no manual packaging it is fully automated - you just get more options for what you can install. Of course you can edit the scripts manually if you like to.
And you should use MBR on sda if you ask me:)

Thanks for that about yaourt. :)

I have the grub on both distros, in the MBR. I think that's what's confusing things. I need to figure out what all Rolf posted in the Help section. Keep in mind, that each one is on its own drive too. I'd really like Fedora to take the boot loader - it's a much prettier grub screen, IMHO.
