I'm trying to convert from lilo to grub on my breezy install. I tried
running grub-install using the same device as lilo uses on my system
(/dev/sda1), but it just brings me up to a grub console. I can always
reinstall Ubuntu, but I would still not know what device to tell grub
to boot. I use a separate boot manager (Bootit NG) on my system to
boot into the various OS'es, so grub needs to boot from the partition
it is installed on. I originally tried to install grub as the
bootloader but never got it working and switched to lilo which boots
fine. Anyone know why grub won't work? FYI my HD is a SATA if that
makes any difference.
Just a message from Doug...
