Maybe something in the Wiki about the programs needed to compile Grub2 the most efficiently? It works a treat though and now Zenwalk mirrors have it available! Thanks again. Oh, has anyone experienced any problems with grub-mkdevicemap when installing Grub2 or updating? I had one user complain about it segfaulting on his machine, but I've not seen any problems. This is with svn2137. Pat
