You can beat the rush and do it now - install grub2, remove grub (you can use yum shell mode to do this without any complaints), run 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' then 'grub2-install /dev/whatever' , where /dev/whatever is the device you want to boot from. This should work in most cases, though if you're using BIOS RAID you might run into a bit of trouble - we keep finding cases where grub2/BIOS RAID is busted. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
