Hi all, i am reading about USB bootable and it points me to grub in tutorial is issued command:
grub
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
but it gives me: Error 15: File not found
i do not have any problems with grub, i can choose between M$ and Linux while boot
so when i issue:
sudo fdisk -l
i see which partition is bootable (sda1)
i have multiple partitons
sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4
sda1 windows
sda2 linux
sda3 swap
sda4 ntfs
so my question: how can i know where is grub installed ?
I found on net that is in directory /boot/grub/stage1 (sda2 in my case)
but why I have bootable sda1 ?? can anyody explain that ?
another question: I found grub can be installed on a partition
or on a MBR
. How can i know where is ?
last question: can i issue i think in my case command:
(sould be sda2 where i expecting grub) and then command:
should gives output ?
realy last question: I create bootalbe usb with unetbootin which uses syslinux, is possible to boot M$ located on HDD throught that ? Thanks a lot

I thing I ve found solution so
/boot/grub/ contains grub files that are too big to store in MBR so they have to be located somewhere in hdd.
now works i forget sudo
but still i would know if is possible from unetbootin created USB boot directly to harddisk partition (i dont want to press ctrl alt del)
