GRUB 2 does require a config file, just a different one.

D is misleading, it’s actually grub.cfg, not grub.config.

Wait, are you sure about that? I thought partition numbers were still 1-based.

I feel like the grub-mkconfig command was a point of confusion in our studies, but I don't remember the specifics about the version option.

I practiced a question about the configuration files, and I think the old menu.lst was replaced, but I can't remember the exact new name.

I think partition numbers starting at 0 is a key difference, but I can't recall if that applies to both versions or just one.

I remember that GRUB 2 introduced a lot of changes, but I'm not sure if it completely eliminated the need for a configuration file.

I've got a good handle on the GRUB differences. I think I can narrow this down and select the correct answer.

I'm a bit unsure about the details here. I'll try to eliminate the options I'm less confident about and then make an educated guess.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. I think the partition numbering is different between the two versions, but I'll double-check that.

Okay, let's see. I know GRUB 2 has a different configuration file structure, but I'm not sure about the specifics. I'll have to review that.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the differences between GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2.

A no-config GRUB 2? That just sounds too good to be true. I'm a bit skeptical about that one.
JA

I'm not sure, but I think B) Partition numbers start at 0 in GRUB Legacy and 1 in GRUB 2 makes sense.

D sounds promising, but I'm not sure if they really did away with the old config files entirely. Gotta double-check that one.
