<DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV>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.</DIV>
<DIV>The scenario is this:</DIV>
<DIV>/boot is /dev/hda5 when Redhat was installed.</DIV>
<DIV>A new windows partition was installed which became /dev/hda5. /boot now
became /dev/hda6.</DIV>
<DIV>Am i to re-install grub after changing the grub.conf file?</DIV>
<DIV>Thank you.</DIV>
<DIV>Bolaji</DIV></FONT></DIV>
