Hi,
Is there a way to know *for sure* where grub puts the MBR? (No setup
command)
/grub/device.map has:
hd0=/dev/hda
hd1=/dev/sda
and menu.lst has:
=============================================================
#
default 2
#
timeout 5
# Pretty colours
color cyan/blue white/blue
# ...
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.16-ck8
root (hd1,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-ck8 root=/dev/sda3 ro quiet
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.16-ck8 (recovery mode)
root (hd1,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-ck8 root=/dev/sda3 ro single
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.8-2-386
root (hd1,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-2-386 root=/dev/sda3 ro quiet vga=788
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-2-386
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.8-2-386 (recovery mode)
root (hd1,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8-2-386 root=/dev/sda3 ro single
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.8-2-386
savedefault
boot
=============================================================
But the way hda is setup (on VMware) is like this:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 1 973 7815591 2d Unknown
/dev/hda2 974 1946 7815622+ 2d Unknown
/dev/hda3 1947 2919 7815622+ 2d Unknown
/dev/hda4 2920 9729 54701325 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 2920 3892 7815591 2d Unknown
/dev/hda6 3893 4865 7815591 2d Unknown
/dev/hda7 4866 9729 39070048+ 83 Linux
So does he put the MBR on /dev/hda or /dev/hda7?
Thanks!
