GRUB

[Karl Larsen]

I am looking for a user paper that explains how grub works and how 
you set it up with the Rescue DVD and such. I see nothing and guys on 
the Fedora List know nothing.

Karl,
I have some notes from my RHCT days. I'll see if I can dig them up tomorrow.

Thank you Eric. I have a feeling that what I envision is not available. 
But need to look around as much as possible.

Hi Karl,

If you run the "info grub" command you will find lots of useful
information about how to configure grub.

I have not read this thread properly, but there was a post to the
ubuntu forums about grub, which might help:

Cheers,

Murray.

I was directed to this URL and it is sure what in general I am 
looking for.

http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/grub.html

It is pointed at SUSE but it can be used on Fedora as well.

And much better than info grub.
