GRUB Lesson Learned

** WARNING** The following entry has a high level of geekness, even for Linux users.  Read at your own discretion! LOL

Ok, so I had a minor scare tonight when I thought I had trashed my computer completely.  See, the other day I upgraded to openSUSE 10.3 and recreated all my file systems in the hope that I wouldn’t have to always rebuild my /home directory after every upgrade.  Unfortunately, as it turns out, 4GB of user space is not enough for my use since I use a VM to load WindowsXP on top of my Linux Desktop.  Its a really handy thing to have available, but it requires around 10GB minimum if you want to do anything useful with your VM.
