Re: Putting grub back on new mirror disk

["Timothy D. Lenz" <tlenz@vorgon.com>]

When I last checked the grub version was when I got the help in the 
#grub channel on freenode irc: (GNU GRUB 1.98~20100115-1)

I may have done an apt-get update/upgrade since, but it would have been 
a long time ago. I didn't ask on irc this time because a busy day and 
couldn't wait for response. I already am on this list which is why I 
checked here. I want to do a full upgrade, and build a new kernel when I 
get some time. But wanted to get it back to where it was before the 
drive dies first. I'll take a closer look at the replies here tommrow 
when I get a chance.

Still trying to figure out why I also lost audio on DVI output for vdr. 
I sent the computer to a shop this time thinking they would be able to 
take care of things. They replaced a sata cable and the power supply 
(said it was dieing which is possible) and reset the cmos :( but missed 
the fact that the drive was bad or 3 arrays where down.
