Re: Why prot_size subtract GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_SIZE in the file grub-1.98/loader/i386/linux.c ?

[Baisheng Wang]

Let me clarify again.

In grub-1.98/loader/i386/linux.c, for the code lines：

"grub_file_seek (file, real_size + GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_SIZE);"

and

"prot_size = grub_file_size (file) - real_size - GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_SIZE;"

I want to know why there is another sector, I mean GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_SIZE ?

Thanks,

Dear all:

In the file grub-1.98/loader/i386/linux.c, for the variable prot_size, why subtract GRUB_DISK_SECTOR_SIZE ?

Thanks & Regards,
