Hello from Gregg C Levine Here's a paradox: This computer, and all Dell computers from the same time period do not recognize the logic of booting from USB, (It's not in the BIOS) however they support the use of USB attached media providing the OS supports it.
Can GRUB be convinced to boot a USB attached drive, if the machine's BIOS does not support it? -- Now here are my reasons. I have here a USB adapter that connects a normal IDE attached drive, to the USB connectors on the Dell family of machines that live here. Linux recognizes it as SDA, well typically SDA it depends on how the OS recognizes the drive. Xen uses GRUB as a boot loader to facilitate the booting of Xen configured domains. Don't complain to me regarding their naming of the different OSes, it happens that's what the fellows there chose. And it happens I'd like to experiment with Xen. Either Linux of course or NetBSD who also has support for Xen. The website for Xen discusses how it works, and predictably how. it also happened to be linked from the pages for the NetBSD/Xen idea. I don't have a machine here to work with it, but I do have the drives. Any complaints, questions, and you name it, please contact me directly. Anything GRUB-Legacy related we can leave on the list. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- "Remember the Force will be with you. Always."
