Re: How to find active grub.conf

Thank firstly.

Actually, current my situation is I will reboot my machine remotely. So
I have no chance to change grub.conf during grub booting time. So, I
have to change the correct boot kernel before reboot. Then, I need to
know where the right grub.conf is.

I guess grub stage1 in MBR should know where it is. Who know how to
pick-up the information in grub-stage1? Or whether grub shell provides
corresponding command or API for it?

Thanks you all for attention.

Gavin.
