Bug#519508: installation-guide: Section 5.1.3 Booting from Linux Using LILO or GRUB assumes Linux is on hd0, 0
Package: installation-guide
Severity: minor
In section 5.1.3, if using GRUB, the procedure says to add lines
kernel (hd0,0)/boot/newinstall/vmlinuz
initrd (hd0,0)/boot/newinstall/initrd.gz
This will of course only work if the files were copied to
(hd0,0)/boot/newinstall/.
BTW, I have no idea what "the value of ramdisk_size" refers to in "Note
that the value of the ramdisk_size may need to be adjusted for the size
of the initrd image." (just below).
And another BTW, it would be more generic to talk about ISO images in
the third paragraph, since the iso can also be a DVD image.
