OK, so I repeat my suggestion below: Do not duplicate the files that belong to grub, only the rest of the system. That is, do replace everything outside /boot, and the kernels, and menu.lst, but not the other files in /boot/grub. If you insist on replacing them too, do this: 1. Do as I suggested (replace everything but them). 2. Boot your new installation. 3. untar /boot of the original server, and run grub-install. -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
