Basically it consists of (re)compilation and installation of world + kernel However, 2 parts are always ommited: Stage 1 - mbr|boot0 Stage 2 - boot I won't also mention GPT part ... Stage 3 - loader (is "covered" by world install) Should it be expanded to world + kernel + bootcodes The old way, one could pull it's old bootcodes, from 6.0 to 10.0 world + kernel And bootcodes are changing. I've got bitten by bug in stage 2 boot, during 8.2 -> 9.0. Domagoj Smolčić
