Some time ago I tried to use Grub2, having found that Grub1 (Legacy) didn't work on my system ( yes, I know my logic was poor! ).
While trying to find how to use it, I came across the following page :- http://grub.enbug.org/TestingOnX86 In that page there is a section about installing Grub2 on a "Real system", which seems to me to have an obvious error which might mislead others. I am too old and feeble to engage in battle with wicked wikis but I would like to offer the following comment to the page's author (or in the hope that it might help to improve the "documentation" of grub2: In the first code box of this section the last command reads :- grub-install --grub-setup=/boot/grub/grub.cfg /dev/hda I think the error is to quote the path to the config file as an argument where the path to the grub-setup program is expected. The default path is probably OK anyway, so you can probably just omit the whole option :- grub-install /dev/hda The above should run grub-setup successfully (rather than trying to execute grub.cfg!) for you so there's no need to run it again: If this works then the comments that follow about a "bug in grub-install" could be removed. Hope this helps! Steve _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
