After doing a fresh install of kubuntu 6.06 using the Alternative disk so I could install grub in the / partition, thus inabeling me to use a third party boot manager, and accidently chossing the wrong partition I can no longer chose where to put grub.
The disk simply installs grub without ever asking me for my advice. I have wiped the mbr a dozen times with a 98SE boot disk's Fdisk /mbr, as well as Ranish Partition Manager, and the latest version of acronis. I have completely wiped the drive 3 times, and reinstalled my boot manager (XOSL) every time.
No matter what I do the disk simply acts like grub is still there and procedes without asking me. I'm getting so pissed I'm almost to the point of doing a low level format of the damn drive. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?
The system is a Acer 4005 Laptop.
Thanks for any help....
