Do you not understand what this means? Why not just create a partition? > And grub-install not accept "--skip-fs-probe" I recently added to lfs-dev: "GRUB is an extremely powerful program and it provides a tremendous number of options for booting from a wide variety of devices, operating systems, and partition types. There are also many options for customization such as graphical splash screens, playing sounds, mouse input, etc. The details of these options are beyond the scope of this introduction." What you are asking about is well beyond LFS. I suggest asking at http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
