The other thing sitting in the embedded area is a whole disc encryption product. It takes up about 60 sectors of the 64 sectors of the embedded area. I don't think that there is a standard way of managing who has priority over the embedded area. I think it would be good if one could put grub into the beginning of a partition. The problem with this is that I don't know if there is room to put grub at the beginning of an ext3 or lvm partition. If it were possible, it would make grub much more compatible with Dual boot systems. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
