I have Fedora 17 installed, using grub2, and have grub2 installed in the /boot partition and not in the MBR. I have
a multi-boot manager ( Acronis OSS ) in the MBR. Everything is working fine.

As I understand it I must use FedUp in fedora 17 to upgrade to Fedora 18 since the install DVD can no longer
upgrade. If I use FedUp will it work in my setup, ie. the software will know to update its boot code in the /boot
partition and not in the MBR ? Do I have to re-install the Fedora 18 grub2 in the /boot partition or does FedUp do
it for me ? Are there any other upgrade issues for my setup?

upgrades typically do NOT touch GRUB at all
if you want to update GRUB you have to do this always at your own

I don't want to update grub2. I just want the update to work with whatever grub2 is being installed.


means: he update bring only the new packages and commands

So if a new grub2 is installed I need to re-initialize it ? I will follow the instructions at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GRUB_2.

Thanks for your help.
