goal: replace hda (with a bigger drive) limits: no floppy, no cd burner how do i do it? rh9 is running on hdb. grub boots off hda, of course, so when i replace hda, i'll lose my mbr. i have at hand a set of rh7.2 cd's. but even having booted the rescue cd, i don't see how then to boot into my working rh9 partition on hdb. i can invoke grub while on the rescue cd. it can install an mbr. but if i try to set root to (hd1,2), and install an mbr, i just get something about wrong cylinder size or some such message when i try to boot. with grub running on the rescue cd, i can load the configfile from my rh9 partition on hdb. but it won't let me just go and boot. that's all i really want to do. how do i do it? tia, greg -- http://gnuleaf.net -- a new lease on life for stranded red hatters -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
