No. Right, I wanted "grub-install /dev/sdb". (Actually, I did want GRUB to install _part_ of itself to that partition (it was a GPT bios_grub paritition), so that's why it seemed normal enough that GRUB referred to "hd1,gpt1", but odd that it was looking for a filesystem there. Hmm. I guess an error-message enhancement-suggestion bug report is in order...) Daniel
