GRUB 2 doestn't use anymore the same system as the stage* files in GRUB Legacy. It still uses the embeding area between MBR and first partition. core.img is the file which ends up there and is much bigger then stage1_5 from Legacy. Because it not only contains the filesystem module to access /boot/grub but also the GRUB kernel with the rescue mode. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- grub fails after running Windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441941 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
