Here is a patch that makes it possible to chainload GRUB2 core.img form chain.c32. It reuses the grub= parameter (used for chainloading GRUB Legacy stage2): - both loaded at 0x8000 - start execution at offset 0x200 (0x8200 in memory) GRUB2 allows to specify another "GRUB home dir" than the standard /boot/grub GRUB2 doesn't allow to change the configfile 'grub.cfg' name

Hi, I'm new to the list. I've replaced grub by extlinux to multi boot my system. Now, I can't manage to boot one of my systems. I have 5 hard drives, 3 of them being part of a raid0 array, and one of them being here for backup purposes (can be removed). So the total 'logical' drives number is 2. First drive: - primary partition holding a rescue Windows XP system (ntfs) -

Hi Peter, I just noticed your check-in of the api headers. Are you planning on making the fat library also into an API? This would make things easier for me for my safeboot module (redundant bootloader which i mailed you about last week). I aleady moved some of the chainboot's partition finding logic into outside files, so I can add that to the API as well. thanks, Ram

I am running rsync throuhg cygwin and trying to "mirror" two hard drives (hd1 -> hd2). HD1 have tons of hard links (I will say about 2 millions) because I do monthly backups and have about 13 folders and maybe about 150,000 files. Every month when I make a new snapshot I would also want to mirror HD1 to HD2. I tried running rsync -aH --progress -vv /cygdrive/d/ /cygdrive/e/ I though

Greetings - The short story is that got my new install completed with the partitioning I wanted and using software raid, but after a reboot I ended up with a grub prompt, and do not appear to have a grub.cfg file. So here is a little history of how I got here, because I know in order for anyone to help me they would subsequently ask for this information. So this post is a little long, but

filename to GRUB Legacy GRUB Legacy reserves 89 bytes for storing the filename of the configfile from memory address 0x8217 to 0x826f. We allow overwriting the default value (/boot/grub/menu.lst) when grubcfg=<filename> is used together with grub=<loader>. Examples: chain.c32 fs grub=/boot/grub/stage2 grubcfg=/boot/grub/grub.lst chain.c32 hd1,10 grub=/boot/grub/stage2

Hello, I have two disks sda and sdb. One of the was broken so I have changed the broken disk with a working one. I started the server in rescue mode, and created the partional table, and added all the partitions to the software raid. *I have added the partitions to the RAID, and reboot.* # mdadm /dev/md0 --add /dev/sdb1 # mdadm /dev/md1 --add /dev/sdb2 # mdadm /dev/md2 --add /dev/sdb3 # mdadm
