I installed OpenSUSE first and allowed it to install and configure grub in the MBR and after that I

wanted to proceed with CentOS v5.2. The installation went fine with two notable exceptions:- when I had to configure grub installation parameters, CentOS offered me only 2 solutions: either install it on the MBR of the first hard disk or not installing it at all. Other distributions are more flexible allowing you to install it in the boot sector of the root error 13 invalid or unsupported executable format rhel partition for example. Because I didn't want to ruin the existent grub configuration, I reluctantly accepted not to install it for CentOS assuming that I could manually configure the entry later in grub's menu.lst file.- when I was presented with the options for software components installation, I've clicked on virtualization category/function because I intend to use the machine as a VMware host. There was no guidance on screen at that point and I blindly assumed that by choosing the virtualization function I would get necessary tools and drivers that will help me further on. It seems that this was a wrong move as you can see it below.After completing the installation, I tried to search for a template or guiding on how the menu entry in menu.lst should look like but the grub directory was empty, not surprisingly because I've told CentOS earlier not to install it. Using the files in the /boot directory from the CentOS installation I tried to improvise a menu entry but it's not working. The boot stops with famous Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. Using the f

I then tried installing CentOS 6.7 into the unallocated space but now, when I try to start Ubuntu MATE via GNU GRUB version 0.97, I get the "Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format" message. While I can still log into CentOS, I can now no longer log into Ubuntu MATE. Below is the output of "fdisk -l" run through the CentOS
