Teresa asked specifically about "the device", presumably the device that you pass to grub-install. That's different from --root-directory, and (on BIOS systems) is only passed to grub-setup. It makes no difference to grub-setup whether the device is mounted anywhere or not. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
