Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to give the latest and greatest a try. I know the older stuff will work fine. Just need to know how the new stuff works. Are all the files included that are needed to boot in the 1.95 version I downloaded? Would appreciate it if you could tell me what all files are required. I'm assuming 1.95 is almost fully baked.? :) Regards, Dallas _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
