Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686
Version: 2.6.8-13
Severity: normal
While trying to make /sbin/grub-install work with system containing only
a single XFS partition, I found that I had to add an arbitrary amount of
sleep time so as to proceed after sync and xfs_freeze -f.
I'm attaching my version of /sbin/grub-install for reference. It does
work if sleep is long enough, but what should really happen is
xfs_freeze -f should not return until all of this is ready.

Usage: grub-install [OPTION] install_device
Install GRUB on your drive.
-h, --help print this message and exit
-v, --version print the version information and exit
--root-directory=DIR install GRUB images under the directory DIR
instead of the root directory
--grub-shell=FILE use FILE as the grub shell
--no-floppy do not probe any floppy drive
--force-lba force GRUB to use LBA mode even for a buggy
BIOS
--recheck probe a device map even if it already exists
--sync-sleep number of seconds to sleep while trying to
sync XFS
INSTALL_DEVICE can be a GRUB device name or a system device filename.
grub-install copies GRUB images into the DIR/boot directory specfied by
--root-directory, and uses the grub shell to install grub into the boot
sector.
Report bugs to <bug-grub@gnu.org>.
