   Thanks for responding.   
      
   What I had thought is that before rebooting I could fetch   
   grub from the install disk. I do know, and did know,   
   that grub was on the installed system. At any time   
   after the install, I could always mount the installed   
   system, do the sys/dev/proc stuff, and chmod   
   into it and run grub from that. Why not simply   
   have grub in the install disk and allow the grub   
   to run before rebooting?   
      
   As far as elilo goes, I only tried that once, and I   
   guess I didn't know all that was required. I did   
   partition the target. I got message that the   
   efi partition was formatted fat 32, etc. If   
   further steps were required I should have been   
   guided by the install process.   
      
      
   This is all behind me now, I know I will never   
   buy a system that does not offer legacy boot.
