Hi,

The above paragraph in my last posting is in error.  I wrote
`late binding' in reference to grub when I meant `early binding'.

The power of grub lies in its late binding, which can be
over-ridden by the `d' flag to the install command.

I apologize for this error, I didn't mean to cause any more
confusion to anyone.
    
    You can make grub use early binding - this is what the `d'
    flag is for.  So if you want to use a grub that has been
    installed with the `d' flag after you physically changed the
    drive number - you just boot your emergency grub boot floppy,
    use the map command, then chainload to boot the grub with the
    now out of date early binding.

HTH,
