Not as such. You can use dselect (or aptitude) to install the 'grub' package, which will give you the GRUB files but not actually install them. Going through the GRUB manual will help you get this set up. In general, you can't change filesystem types in place. (ext2 to ext3 and back is an exception.) You could nuke an existing partition and create a new, empty reiserfs partition there, but that's probably not what you're after. It looks like modern GRUB does at least have reiserfs support, which is handy for you. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
