Hi All,
Just FYI, I've written up what I've learned about Grub during the last
few weeks and put it up here:
http://people.apache.org/~skitching/MineOfInformation/linux/Booting_Linux_on_x86_with_Grub2.html
This is excellent -- thanks for writing this up. One difference with the
current code, though. The partition naming has been changed from (hdX,Y) to
(hdX,<partitiontype>Y[,...]) (i.e. (hd0,msdos1) for the first partition
specified by the "dos" partition table on the first disk;
(hd0,msdos1,sunpc1) means slice 0 on the Solaris partition defined by the
first "dos" partition on the first drive).
Thanks,
