Thanks for your reply. Since reading it, I have read up some on the ext3 256
byte inode problem,
which I had no clue about. It seems to be an issue if you are trying to use a
a pre-0.97-21 GRUB
to boot to a filesystem with 256-byte inodes (such as FC9 uses).
This is not the case for me - I am having trouble booting to a 128-byte inode
system (FC7) with a
0.97-33 GRUB (installed by FC9).
However, I did come across this page:
"256-byte Inodes + Unpatched GRUB = No problem"
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=191363
And this one:
"How to install GRUB on the MBR"
http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?s=e2dc7e81c110f4a71503b62347698a00&t=975
And I think there's enough information at these 2 locations to get me beyond
the issue I am
having.
Cheers!
