    Looking to transfer grub from floppy to mbr

    Due to windows upgrade I now can only boot Knoppix from my floppy Grub. Been trying to
    write grub to mbr, anyone have any suggestions?

    There is a solution in the Kanotix wiki, but I don't know whether it will work for your Knoppix install: http://wiki.kanotix.net/CoMa.php?CoM..._After-install

    I will try this:
    Code:
    grub-install --recheck --no-floppy --root-directory=/mnt/hda3 /dev/hda
    I imagine that the drive to mount ie: hda3 would be replaced by my knoppix root drive
    hdb1, would that be correct?
