Making a backup of /boot/grub/grub.cfg is generally all that's needed. Alternatively, I don't bother with other distros much any more. If I do, I can use kvm so they don't mess with *my* system. > Distros use different user numbers (debian-derived distros probably > use similar numbers, redhat/fedora-derived distros use a different > set of similar numbers), and have their own ideas about which > group(s) users belong in - this occasionally creates some amusement > when you share /home. Generally 'sudo vi /etc/passwd' works for that. Even better, mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/lfs sudo cp /mnt/lfs/etc/{passwd,group} /etc Will do the trick too. :) -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
