[rhn-users] GRUB-INSTALL

[Eddy Harvey]

Yup, you'll have to reinstall grub.  It's not too hard, as long as you have
the Linux Rescue CD for your version of linux.  Or, if you have enterprise
linux, just CD #1.
 
Here's what you do:
    (All this can be found via google without much trouble.)
    Boot the rescue CD, or if you have enterprise linux, boot CD #1 and type
"linux rescue"
    Allow the system to auto-detect your installation, it will mount to
/mnt/sysimage
    Get to command prompt.
    chroot /mnt/sysimage
    vi etc/fstab    (maybe no changes necessary.)
    grub
        find /boot/grub/stage1
        or
        find /grub/stage1
        will return something like (hd0,0)
        root (hd0,0)
        setup (hd0)
    vi boot/grub/grub.conf
    When you're done, press ctrl-D to end your command prompt.  System will
reboot.

Hello,
Apart from changing the /etc/grub.conf which is a symbolic link to
/boot/grub/grub.conf, what other config is there to be changed when one
makes a new partition after installing grub before then.
The scenario is this:
/boot is /dev/hda5 when Redhat was installed.
A new windows partition was installed which became /dev/hda5. /boot now
became /dev/hda6.
Am i to re-install grub after changing the grub.conf file?
Thank you.
Bolaji
