Hello,
I've read through the information on the Arch-wiki about transitioning from grub-legacy to grub2. I've organized my notes. Before i go ahead and do this, I want to double check I didn't miss anything. Updates to grub always make me nervous: if it messes up, I potentially can't get into my computer at all. Currently, I am duel-booting with windowsXP. So far, I think I figured out the first part: # mv /boot/grub /boot/grub-legacy # dd if=/dev/sdX of=/backup/bootcode_backup bs=446 count=1 # pacman --noprogressbar -S grub-bios # modprobe dm_mod # grub-install --directory=/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc --target=i386-pc --grub-setup=/bin/true --boot-directory=/boot --recheck --debug /dev/sda # mkdir -p /boot/grub/locale # cp /usr/share/locale/en@quot/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo /boot/grub/locale/en.mo # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg The next step on the wiki is: # grub-probe --target=fs_uuid /media/Windows/bootmgr But when I mount my windows partition, I don't see any bootmgr under the windowsXP root? How do I find the XP equivalent of bootmgr? |
