A while back, I stumbled across a web page or blog entry that |
2 |
explained how to safely use grub2 with it installed in a partition |
3 |
instead of a device (e.g. grub is installed in /dev/sda10 instead of |
4 |
/dev/sda). |
5 |
|
6 |
IIRC, it involved locking a couple key files in the /boot/grub |
7 |
directory so that they can't be moved or modified. This is required |
8 |
because the grub code installed in the boot sector of the partition |
9 |
uses a raw block list to find those key files (grub doesn't actually |
10 |
understand the filesystem at that point). |
11 |
|
12 |
I thought I had saved that info, but now I need it I can't find |
13 |
it — and Google is unable to find the page again (perhaps it's gone). |

Does this ring a bell with anybody? |
