    ummm...

    well, you guys sureh ave been busy while I was away...

    I'm afraid Mike's right -- doubtless this wwas clearer to him than to
    alvin b/c he was helping me out in an earlier, similar thread. I am
    trying to duplicate these disks and make them bootable. Here's the
    situation:

    about 25 machines, which will be running Ubuntu.
    non-identical, old disks which likely have bad sectors (so don't want to
    dd if=/dev/hde of=/dev/hdf or similar).
    so then, question is: how to run grub, preferably non-interactively,
    in such a way that it actually works (which I guess means, in such a
    way that it finds the stage2 file in /boot/grub).

    Still not knowing exactly what I'm doing, I've tried various methods
    thus far with no luck, and am not sure how to proceed...

    sitll thanks everyone for your efforts!
