I have 5 disks in my pc. Four 250 GB SAMSUNG SATA (/dev/sd[abcd]) and a 10 GB SEAGATE PATA (/dev/sde).
The four biggers are assembled into a RAID5 array (md0). This is the lvm PV of the VG named 'big'. My root filesystem is on the /dev/big/newroot. The BIOS booting from the old PATA disk. I want to install grub2 into /dev/sde. There are the rquested outputs. root@homepc:~# fdisk -lu Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders, total 488397168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 =
