What the fuck is wrong with you, guys? Why didn't you just read the manual? http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#BIOS-installation
Arch follows upstream, you know?
Thank you for your polite reply! I have read the manual and maybe I am just plain stupid but I could not find the answer to my question in that link! I am aware that arch follows upstream. But grub2 as released is new. Can you tell me in which section the answer lies - (there is a single reference to the post-MBR gap in that link but it implies that it should be 1MiB in general and yet grub has worked without it forever!) That is why I asked the question related to grub2 - if that means I am regarded as a complete idiot then I will shut up and not raise this further - maybe I am the only arch user who fails to know how to find the answer to this question. -- mike c
