[OpenIndiana-discuss] re-install grub

No, that does not work either:

# /sbin/installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c4d0p0
raw device must be a root slice (not s2)
Unable to gather device information for /dev/rdsk/c4d0p0

I need to specify s0...
# /sbin/installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c4d0s0
stage2 written to partition 1, 277 sectors starting at 50 (abs 61432610)
stage1 written to partition 1 sector 0 (abs 61432560)

Note that however, I still don't have my grub back after reboot.

# fdisk /dev/rdsk/c4d0p0

 Partition   Status    Type          Start   End   Length    %
