(It doesn't matter how. I am just trying to avoid a long unnecessary explanation). I was able to replace that boot loader with grub by using my Fedora 8 rescue disk, grub install and the grub shell command line. My question was not based on being unfamiliar with working with grub. During that process, it occurred to me that there is already a perfectly usable bit of code in Anaconda that installs grub for dual booting with every new install of Fedora. And, there are times when people want to reinstall just the grub setup exactly as Anaconda would have done it originally. Is it not possible to make a Red Hat utility that just repeats the grub part of the Anaconda installation process. Perhaps it could have a gui frontend in order to make some simple adjustments, but nonetheless a user/administrator could re-install just the grub part of their system without having to run the entire Fedora installation. -- Regards Bill -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
