Hi List,
I have belatedly made the change from lilo to grub carefully converting my lilo config to grub'ese. It seems to work as expected.
However, I have a couple of questions which I cannot track down in any off-line source (man, info, howto's etc.) and I am not able to trawl google or list archive with a time-limited unmetered dial-up connection at present.
1. In lilo I always used the boot-floppy option so as not to upset WinME. How do I do something similar in grub?
Not sure myself.
2. When the bootloader menu appeared in lilo I could interactively overide the default runlevel (ie: boot to runlevel 3 not 5) when necessary. How is this achieved in the grub menu?
At the boot prompt add a 3 or what ever runlevel you want to override the default start level. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please* "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
