I assume you have separate partition for chroot. * edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (assuming you are using grub legacy) in chroot * assuming you installed grub on MBR, you run something like "grub-install /dev/hda" from chroot * reboot I tends to be more careful. I put mbr package to install it to MBR (/dev/hda) like old days. I install grub on the root partition of 1st install (say dev/hda1). Then put another install and install grub on that partition (say /dev/hda2). Then I an safe even if I screw up new installation. Oh, if you are installing new grub 2 series such as grub-pc, /dev/hda1 is now (hd0,1) insttead of old (hd0,0) and configuration file is /boot/grub/grub.cfg http://people.debian.org/~osamu/pub/getwiki/html/ch04.en.html#stagecthebootloader Osamu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
