Re: [Trustedgrub-users] large stage1 and stage2 files

[Marcel S. <ma...@se...>]

Hi Matt,

wow, thats amazingly huge ;)
stage1 has to have 512 Byte, since it has to fit into the MBR and
stage2 only contains a couple of Kb. This is my listing of /boot/grub:

~ $ ls -lh /boot/grub/
insgesamt 172K
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  200 12. Nov 00:12 grub.conf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    9 13. Sep 18:22 menu.lst -> grub.conf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  512 11. Nov 23:19 stage1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 169K 11. Nov 23:19 stage2

As you can see, stage2 only has 169k.
I am wondering, what may have happened for the stages to become that
large ...
Could you send  me a directory listing of your TrustedGRUB-directory,
it seems, that one of the statically linked libraries might have
become too big for some reason...

Thanks!
Marcel
