<PRE>Le 29/01/2013 17:57, Maurice Batey a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> Is there any technical reason why 'preferably near the start of the drive'?
</I>&gt;<i>    (Or perhaps simpy advisable in case of re-partitioning?)
</I>&gt;<i> Does it e.g. have to be a primary partition?
</I>
No, but some BIOS cannot access the whole drive, and GRUB uses the BIOS 
to access stage1_5 files.

Last time I saw this on a 2006 laptop, I had to install Lilo to be able 
to boot 8^[
