Grub2
Saved by uncleflo on March 28th, 2016.
GRUB 2 is the default boot loader and manager for Ubuntu since version 9.10 (Karmic Koala). As the computer starts, GRUB 2 either presents a menu and awaits user input or automatically transfers control to an operating system kernel. GRUB 2 is a descendant of GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader). It has been completely rewritten to provide the user significantly increased flexibility and performance. GRUB 2 is Free Software.

Device map - GNU GRUB Manual 2.00~rc1
Saved by uncleflo on August 31st, 2013.
If the device map file exists, the GRUB utilities (grub-probe, grub-setup, etc.) read it to map BIOS drives to OS devices. This file consists of lines like this: (device) file Device is a drive specified in the GRUB syntax (see Device syntax), and file is an OS file, which is normally a device file. Historically, the device map file was used because GRUB device names had to be used in the configuration file, and they were derived from BIOS drive numbers. The map between BIOS drives and OS devices cannot always be guessed correctly: for example, GRUB will get the order wrong if you exchange the boot sequence between IDE and SCSI in your BIOS.

GNU GRUB - GNU Project - Free Software Foundation (FSF)
Saved by uncleflo on August 31st, 2013.
GNU GRUB is a Multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader, which was originally designed and implemented by Erich Stefan Boleyn. Briefly, a boot loader is the first software program that runs when a computer starts. It is responsible for loading and transferring control to the operating system kernel software (such as the Hurd or Linux). The kernel, in turn, initializes the rest of the operating system (e.g. GNU).

How do i know the BIOS number for my SCSI disks
Saved by uncleflo on August 30th, 2013.
The contribution from Marc Tanguy (mtanguy@ens.uvsq.fr), 2001-09-27. If you have an adaptec scsi card (2940u2, 29160, 39160), you simply use the 'diagnose' mode (using BIOS v3.10.0 recommended). It must be activated in the scsi card BIOS menu. If you don't own an adaptec card, you have to know what is the 'booting' disk (usually ID 0, but not necessary, it can be defined in the scsi card BIOS) where LILO is going to be found and start : this is the first disk so it has number 0x80. Then it's very simple, the BIOS follows the IDs.

10 boot time parameters you should know about the Linux kernel
Saved by uncleflo on August 30th, 2013.
The Linux kernel accepts boot time parameters as it starts to boot system. This is used to inform kernel about various hardware parameter. You need boot time parameters: Troubleshoot system, Hardware parameters that the kernel would not able to determine on its own, Force kernel to override the default hardware parameters in order to increase performance, Password and other recovery operations

HowTo Install Fedora 10 DVD from a 4GB USB stick - FedoraForum.org
Saved by uncleflo on May 1st, 2012.
If you don't have an optical drive (eg on the recent batch of netbooks) then it is useful to be able to install the Fedora 10 DVD from a usb stick. You can just use the live image and transfer to a 1GB usb but that doesn't allow any package selection, Development Tools, Desktop choice (Gnome or KDE) If you have a 4gb usb stick then you can use a little trick to turn it into a dvd installer. Basically you use the livecd-iso-to-disk script from an existing Fedora installation (or even a livecd session) to install the boot.iso image (rather than the livecd image)
