Package: src:grub2 Version: 1.99-23 Severity: grave User: debian-bsd@lists.debian.org Usertags: kfreebsd X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-bsd@lists.debian.org Hi, While testing #651720 I think I've found a more serious problem. If I create /boot in the GNU/kFreeBSD installer as a Logical partition (i.e. ada0s5, within an msdos extended partition ada0s2) formatted with ufs, GRUB install fails because grub-probe doesn't understand it. It worked fine when I created it as a Primary partition (ada0s2) instead. (GRUB install succeeds, installed system is bootable.) Here's another example where grub-probe fails, this time where the partitions are ZFS physical volumes, and on SCSI devices: > # zpool status > pool: tank > state: ONLINE > scan: scrub repaired 0 in 0h9m with 0 errors on Sun Nov 25 03:04:32 2012 > config: > > NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM > tank ONLINE 0 0 0 > da0s2 ONLINE 0 0 0 > da1s5 ONLINE 0 0 0 > > errors: No known data errors i.e. da0s2 is an msdos primary partition, da1s5 is an msdos logical partition, and both contain ZFS physical volumes belonging to the same pool. > # grub-probe -d /dev/da0s2 > zfs > # grub-probe -d /dev/da1s5 > grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/da1s5. Check your device.map. > # cat /boot/grub/device.map > (hd0) /dev/da0 > (hd1) /dev/da1 Verbose output, partition layout and output of fdisk -l are attached. Thanks, Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain steven@pyro.eu.org
