Re: Grub2: Where's the grub-update executable???

[Dr. Dov Bulka]

Did not find grub-update but ran into grub-mkconfig instead. Still, when I reboot, I'm not able to pickup the new grub.conf that was created. Here's the sequence of steps I took:

(I'm using RHEL 2.6.18-8.rl5)

% cd /boot/grub
% grub-mkconfig -o grub.conf
% reboot -f

When grub appears, it goes straight to the command line prompt, ignoring the newly created grub.conf.

What am I doing wrong?

I'm running grub version 1.97.

I ran the build from the sources. No problem. Ran grub-install and then reboot to see grub2 in action. It goes straight to the command line prompt. I guess it did not find a "grub.conf".

I guess I need to generate a grub.conf file. However, I cannot find any "grub-update" or "update-grub" executable anywhere. I don't think it was built.

Did the name change in Grub2? How am I supposed to generate a new grub.conf?

Thx.
