Actually lines like:
root (hd0,0) in menu.lst do _nothing_. root (hd0,0) is an interactive mode (grub prompt) command. By the time menu.lst is parsed the chance for grub to act on it has passed. Having these root (hdn,m) commands in menu.lst is a bad habit acquired from Red Hat iirc. Their installer would put it in menu.lst commented out: #root (hd0,0) for the users reference. > http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support > FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html > Unsubscribe: See the above information page > -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
