I could post a grub bootable CD image if you think that would help.



This would most certainly help me in the future :-)

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to post this. I think a tool like
this would be useful. Obviously, there are rescue discs which can do some
of the same things. I have one of my own, for example (Doesn't everyone?):

A very wholehearted Thank You to you Douglas;
Not only for specifically helping me with my issues months ago (the
link above recounts such an encounter :-)) - but also for your
continuing devotion and effort you put into your project, which helps
all in the FOSS community! As well as all the detailed helpful posts I
see you make across the varying *nix groups.

I have been s-l-o-w-l-y reviewing all the documentation you have posted
and am starting my way again through the GRUB manual. Time is short for
me though, and I will eventually post back with more updates on my
progress (as time allows).

I too, also hope that GRUB 2.0 will be a whole lot better than I have
experienced so far...I have yet to read all the changes that are to be
made, and decide whether or not I may like them (or not) ...Thanks again
