Eventually you will be asked if it is ok to look for any RH distros on the drive. Answer yes. At the command prompt type: chroot /mnt/sysimage Once this is done, then type: grub-install /dev/hda (Again, assuming you only have one hard drive installed) Regards, Phil Savoie -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
