That's not how it works. You give it a path (typicaly /boot/grub) and it traverses /dev to resolve what device it belongs to (-t device). Then it tells you the modules core.img will need to access this path (-t partmap, -t fs). $ time sudo grub-probe -t partmap /boot/grub pc real 0m0.469s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.088s Not sure why /dev/hda is so slow though. Maybe it's a bug, but not an important one. -- Robert Millan My spam trap is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note: this address is only intended for spam harvesters.
