So if you have / on the bootdisk, there's no chance but to boot grub from floppy and install it from there. Ahm, nearly. There seems to be a sysctl (...geom.debug=16 ?) which allows to write the bootsector, but you better ask phk directly - I'm not sure... -- Ciao/BSD - Matthias Matthias Schuendehuette <msch [at] snafu.de>, Berlin (Germany) PGP-Key at <pgp.mit.edu> and <wwwkeys.de.pgp.net> ID: 0xDDFB0A5FReceived on Fri Nov 21 2003 - 13:34:58 UTC
