That was about Grub2. Grub legacy, with a separate /boot partition, works fine. And I mean that the command "grub-install" or "grub-setup" fails to figure out how to access the /boot file system. It mistakenly starts searching how to access "/" (although it shouldn't), fails and thus fails the whole installation process. This bug is fixed in version 1.96. > Grub is only used for loading the kernel and starting it - so as long as grub > can read the /boot partition it's fine... Yes. However, you should install Grub into MBR first, and that failed with Grub-1.95. -- Alexander E.
