Very simple. I always suggest and resort to the Grub boot floppy in cases like this. Install grub-doc. Then: $ info grub (scroll down to) Installation <Enter> (scroll down to) Creating a GRUB boot floppy:: <Enter> (follow the instructions) Reboot to floppy, and $ info grub (scroll down to) Installation <Enter> (scroll down to) Installing GRUB natively:: <Enter> (follow the instructions - print them out so that you have them after your boot to the grub boot-floppy) Worx. I bet someone will say, 'hé, we have a grub-disk as .deb and apt-get install is easier than the creation of a grub floppy !' In my opinion, the creation helps to read the info grub that is needed anyway later to re-install the MBR. Uwe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
