First of all, this issue is not really bug. I ran into some issue with GRUB,

Hi,
just for your info...

Hi,
I was just force to migrate from grub 0.97 to grub2 by a debian upgrade.
Well, manpages are poor and I made some mistake with installing grub...

Can you point me to my source of misunderstanding?
You understand that chainloading linux is not necessary, of course.
Hi,
I hope this is the right place to ask such a Q.
I've set up a Mandrake Fat Client terminal server.
