The current status of it are exactly what you found out. I don't know if that'll ever change. > Could anyone give me any pointers/direction on what might be happening > here? Could it be that the "norootverify"-functionality of grub-legasy > is lacking here? Or, perhaps, that the "--force" option is not being > honored ? rootnoverify isn't needed anymore, because root is now just a variable and not anymore a command which tried to verify it. So basically rootnoverify is default now. chainloader --force just skips the check for 0xaa55, normally it shouldn't be needed with a valid windows bootsector. -- Felix Zielcke _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
