I see that LFS 7.1 uses Grub 0.97 and the Ubuntu 12.04 server I am using as a host uses Grub 2 ( 1.99 ?? ).
I've looked around and read several articles but I am left wanting (as they say in a Dickens's novel). Grub stage one is the code in the MBR ... right? How does stage one know where to go from there? I see this root= thingy which lives in a config file but that's in a file system. Doesn't there need to be something in the MBR to point to the partition where Grub config files live? ... as well as stage 2 code???
