So I can run any kind of apt-get, aptitude, etc. So I repeat: apt-cache search grub gives me lots of grub files to install. Do I want to install a different grub? I remember that previously I had lots of files in /boot/grub/ . Now I have just a few, which I gave to you and the List in my previous post. Again: are there people with a working dual boot system? I'd like a response from one of them(if they exist here) letting me know how it works, and also: what is the content of their /boot/grub/ directory. Again: TIA. Alan McConnell
