Should 'grub-install' change the MBR?
Try the following : $ grub root (hd0,0) setup (hd0) quit root (hd0,0) defines where your boot partition is [(hd0,0)=hda]. setup (hd0) installs grub in hda's MBR. It works fine on my notebook with sid. btw. u don't have to run grub every time you edit menu.lst or upgrade a kernel image, that's its beauty :) -- Manolis Tzanidakis (mtzanidakis-at-freemail-dot-gr) Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 102798230 GnuPG Key Fingerprint: 5CA5 41D6 09F1 C4B9 C331 65EF 4B3F 6979 EB8C 88F3 Get my public key at: pgp.mit.edu
