Well, I was thinking about this, and depending on what you need as part of the grub image and your partition table type, you might have to have a non- LVM partition anyway. GRUB tries to write it's image (the replacement for *stage1_5 and stage2) to where it can on the disk, but with large images or GPT it may need you to reserve that space. The "stage1" can still only load the "stage1_5/stage2" from a known offset on a BIOS disk. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
