This discussion opens a question I've been curious about. IIUC, bios choses a boot device and runs the MBR code. Assuming that's GRUB2 MBR code, GRUB2 then loads the 1.5 code hidden before the first partition of the same device. Next step is to process grub.cfg.
Now, does that code contain a copy of grub.cfg? Or does it read it from someplace? If the second, how does it decide where/how to read grub.cfg. I understand how, once it has grub.cfg, it decides what to boot. It's where grub.cfg comes from that I don't understand. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
