Now Mike, This is not Fair! You cant keep changing the nomenclature like this, It just confuses my poor little brain....... I thut I thaw a put-tee tat...... So lets see, no stage 1.5 unless you are reading the grub manual by the light of the full moon under a pear tree, divide by 27, carry the 2, divide again by four and multiply by PI R-squared to the Nth power. Lets see................hmmmmmmmmmmmm. Bing...........Warp Speed Mr Sulu.. Okay , so we have Stage 1 the MBR or Primary Boot Loader which calls Stage 2 the Main Boot Decision loader which calls Stage 3 the OS loader? Or is it just Stage 1 and Stage 2 followed by the OS LOAD and boot? or it is Stage 1, 1.5 and 2 and carry the 3 if you are using the same motherboard as Ashley? for the unwary - CTS and CHS refer to the same thing For really old ones like me, we refer to disk in terms of Tracks, which was the original nomenclature used with removal pack disk drives later generations like heads better, I guess they changed it because of Winchester technology -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
