I've never put grub on anything other than sda. I do know that grub has some areas on the disk that it needs to access outside of a file system. Fedora uses some security modules like selinux. I don't know if that is the issue or not. The way I'd do it is to just replace the disk so it is recognized as sda, boot with a rescue CD, make sure that /boot is mounted correctly and then run 'grub-install /dev/sda'. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
