Randy, I'm not a grub kind of guy but there seems to be some confusion about grub.conf versus menu.lst. Googling it suggests that menu.lst is an outdated name. Before I sent this email I ran this command on my Fedora Core 8 box:
|
3 |
[root@Zeke ~]# strings /boot/grub/stage2 | grep menu.lst
|
4 |
[root@Zeke ~]# strings /boot/grub/stage2 | grep grub.conf
|
5 |
/grub/grub.conf
|
6 |
/grub.conf
|
7 |
|
8 |
Interestingly, on an older SuSE 9.3 box, I get this:
|
9 |
SuSE-2:~ # strings /boot/grub/stage2 | grep menu.lst
|
10 |
/boot/grub/menu.lst
|
11 |
/menu.lst
|
12 |
|
13 |
I don't run Gentoo anymore but it seems like there is some confusion about the grub configuration file in Gentoo.
