Problem
- Initial Installation of the GRUB Boot Manager on a x86 box
Solution
- RedHat uses the following command for the initial installation of GRUB:
grub: root(hd0,0) grub: install /grub/stage1 d (hd0) /grub/stage2 p (hd0,0)/grub/grub.conf
- Fedora Core 2 requires the following command to install GRUB:
grub: root(hd0,0) grub: find /grub/stage1 grub: setup (hd0)
This assumes that/boot
is on a separate partition on/dev/hda
; if it is just a subdirectory of the/
partition, then use:grub: find /boot/grub/stage1
instead.
