Doesn't show up at boot time. I am not sure how to make it do so -- until now, there was no reason to mourn its passing. I knew what to do with LILO, but I try not to screw around much with GRUB, because "much" can become "too much" pretty easily. | Nik mentioned a case, where this wouldn't work as expected. But | Linux prefers to use UUID (Universally Unique Identifier), LABEL, or | symlinks to identify media storage devices on a system. Using device | assignments (like /dev/hd*# or /dev/sd*#) is not preferred since these | can change between system boots. Right, and I understand that. But there still are puzzles, such as the partition ID, which I suspect is useful but have now idea how. -- dep Pictures: http://www.ipernity.com/doc/depscribe/album Column: https://ofb.biz/author/dep/
