Yep; you're right. Found it in /mnt/sda1. It's my own fault; old age creeping up! I knew I'd seen it somewhere before; I'm also forgetting that I've seen it in /mnt/home on my flash drive installs.....because, of course, they're self-contained, and need to have the boot-loader onboard.
It also doesn't help that I've got about a million OLD menu.lst's (OK, several dozen..!), from where I keep running Grub4DOS, as I chop and change between distros. I REALLY must get around to deleting some of them. Like I said, I JUST don't poke around in this stuff very much, if I can help it! I customize the hell out of my distros, visually.....but system stuff I tend to let WELL alone. "If it ain't broke..."
This, I believe, is what you want:-
Code: Select all

Explain something to me, if you will. In the screenie of GParted, back up the page, why is it some of the entries have a padlock beside them? What are they locked for.....or from?
