$ sudo grep grub2 /var/log/anaconda/program.log This will get you the commands the installer used for installing the bootloader. Chris Murphy ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Software RAID and GRUB on CentOS 7
Hi, When I perform a software RAID 1 or RAID 5 installation on a LAN server with several hard disks, I wonder if GRUB already gets installed on each individual MBR, or if I have to do that manually. On CentOS 5.x and 6.x, this had to be done like this: # grub grub> device (hd0) /dev/sda grub> device (hd1) /dev/sdb grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) grub> root (hd1,0) grub> setup (hd1) grub> quit I'd like my server to be able to boot a degraded software RAID after an eventual hard disk failure.
