This is the code that loads the rest of Grub, where ever it is located. It is not talking about the /boot partition. (Or /boot from the / partition.) You can also run into the same confusion about what Grub and Linux call root. They are not the same thing. If it helps, you can think of Grub as its own small operating system. (Not exactly true, but it help with understanding the differences in naming things.) Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
