My boot rescue skills were never very great, but now are really quite rusty. And my rescus CD dates from 2-3 years ago.I always have at my side a copy of SGB (supergrubdisk) and System Rescue CD.I always use SGB, but what happened to its support lately, notably GRUB2?Dunno, I'm still with Grub legacy (by personal decision). Grub2 is "brand- new" (in comparison to the long avialability and well tested Grub legacy) so I'll keep the old version for at least one more year.But SGB has support for Grub2, isn't it? :-?I see this: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/forum/index.php?topic=494.0 that says 'Super GRUB2 disk 1.98s1 released'But I run SGD 0.9770. What I like about it is that you don't have to hardcode the grub devices:findf /wd80_0jd-60.06 root $(out_device)finds the device that has file wd80_0jd-60.06 on it and uses that as root. No more hardcoding!But I don't know if that function is available with the Super GRUB2 disk, I can't find anything on that, except the news that it has been released and the download of the iso.
There is this: http://www.supergrubdisk.org/wiki/SGD_Howto_make_Custom but I don't know if that applies to the GRUB2 disk. And do you have to have GRUB2 installed in order to use the GRUB2 disk? I asked but noone answered. Must be a stupid question :-( Hugo
