Grub notes

I could only install Grub to the Master Boot Record (MBR), and not to the Linux partition boot sector. Propably due to the Grub loader size.

Solution: Copy the MBR to the Linux partition boot sector, and install an MBR which will boot active partition.

After this, Grub still has boot code in sector 1 (second sector) and forwards.

This is a 512 bytes sector size note.
