/**************************************************************************/ [bugs #10498] Full Item Snapshot: URL: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=10498> Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: Haines Brown On: Sat 09/25/2004 at 19:23 Category: Booting Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Software Error Resolution: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Haines Brown Originator Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Open Release: 0.95+cvs20040624-8 Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: Summary: Incorrect scsi device mapping Original Submission: A problem with device mapping with grub 0.95+cvs20040624-8, under debian sarge. Problem occurs whether stage1 is located in the HD MBR or on a grub boot floppy. There are three scsi disks on the bus. The first is sda (sarge, kernel 2.4.18-bf2.4, reiserfs). The sda bootloader also boots sdb (RedHat 8.0, kernel 2.4.18-14, ext3) and sdc (debian sarge, not set up to boot yet, kernel 2.6.7-1-386, reiserfs). My BIOS sets the disk sequence to be sda, sdb, sdc. However, grub sees sdb as (hd2) and sdc as (hd1). It sees sda properly as (hd0). To boot these devices, I have to boot sdb as `root (hd2,0)' and sdc as `root (hd1,0)'. I tried to alter the /boot/grub/device.map file to read: (hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb (hd2) /dev/sdc but this had no effect. I tried a map command before root in the menu.lst stanzas in order to remap, but this had no effect either. The motherboard is Intel D850MVL; BIOS is Award MV85010A.86A.0011 P05. I was able to boot these three drives under debian woody (on sda and sdc) with an earlier version of grub (same hardware and BIOS setup). I created a boot floppy: grub> install /boot/grub/stage1 d (fd0) /boot/grub/stage2 p /boot/grub/menu.lst but same mapping problem.
