Have you actually tested this by removing the first hd and booting?
Depending on the BIOS I believe that the fallback drive will be called
hdc by the BIOS but will be hdd in the system. That was with RHEL3, but
worth testing.
Hi Bill,
I did not try this particular combination. I shut the box down, removed
the failed drive (hda) and installed it's replacement and proceeded from
there.
Once I had discovered that hdc had no grub installed, after running:
grub> device (hd0) /dev/hdc
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
I set the BIOS to boot from hdc and it all worked.
Regards,
Richard
