<PRE>Trialling Mageia-3-Cauldron and considering the implications of moving
to GRUB2 I have been looking at the most helpful README file at:
<A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/grub2/current/SOURCES/README.">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/grub2/current/SOURCES/README.</A>
Mageia?view=markup
One thing that puzzles me is in lines 59-61:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
59 To re-install GRUB 2 to the root partition and place the
core.img in /boot/grub2/i386-pc/
60
61 # grub2-install --grub-setup=/bin/true /dev/sdXY
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nowhere else in the document is "root partition" mentioned, so why does
it say "re-install"?!
(Perhaps it just means "replace whatever is in the PBR"?)
