Hello Bruce,
i run "grub-install /dev/sda" on my host system which gives a following output:
grub-install /dev/sda
/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: Sector 32 is already in use by the program
`FlexNet'; avoiding it. This software may cause boot or other problems in
future. Please ask its authors not to store data in the boot track.

Installation finished. No error reported.
I can't find any drivers in "/lib/modules/3.16.2/kernel/drivers" expect net
drivers only.
