grub2 won't install on an HD (one newer pc yes, 2 others no)
so to fix things I need a rescue floppy (i guess)
grub-rescue doesn't work without "xorisso" (i don't mkisofs scripts
anymore, no CD drive thanks)
grub-mkrescue needs xorriso. You can't use it without.
I want grub2 on floopy. where are debian's instructions or FAQ for it
please?
grub-mkrescue images can be dd'ed to floppy when small enough
(--compression=xz --diet AFAIR)
