Hi list,
I am a grub user.
Now I usually install grub in the HD mbr if over-written by another instal like
this..
# grub
grubgrub root (hd0,0)
grubsetup (hd0)
This time there was a error.
So I read the GRUB instructions (hardcopy) which is quite extensive.
Found another command..
grubfind /boot/grub/stage1
Now this gives 4 different devices with stage1 .. see below please. This is because
I have various installs using grub.
Again I studied the instructions .. but .. for me it is not clear which is which..
should the wrong setup be given the writing will be in the wrong place .. probably
creating more chaos.
Now what worries me is what would the correct command for setup be to use hd0,0 mbr
and hd0,9 stage1.
Please could I get some pointers here..
for the above short way .. long way see bottom..note.
**
#grub
GRUB version 0.93 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename. ]
grub root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is fat, partition type 0xc
grub find /boot/grub/stage1
(hd0,5)
(hd0,9).this is the one I want to use.
(hd1,4)
(hd1,8)
grubsetup (hd0)
**
Thanks
Note..I already fixed this the long way..by using disc 1 and selecting the install
on hde10. This causes the menu.lst to over-written (which is not really a problem
because I have it on boot-floppy).
Also found that all my MCC additional entries for urpmi was wiped out.
