This sounds like a bug/defect in grub-install. Ideally, it would look at the size of the embedding area, and abort early if it is too small. This should happen before files are copied to /boot/grub, but currently it is done afterward. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
