Details:
When using grub-install to install GRUB in the MBR on Compaq/HP SmartArray
logical disks, the installation fails.
This is due to an erratic detection of the partition number when none is
given.
SmartArray logical disks are numbered /dev/c\dd\ (e.g. /dev/c0d0) and each of
their partitions is numbered p\d (e.g. /dev/c0d0p1) and grub-install uses the
following sed regexp to get the partition number : 's%.*c[0-7]d[0-9]*p\?%%'.
When GRUB is to be installed in the MBR, there is no "p" in the end of the
device name though.
Attached is a patch to fix the issue. Thank you for including it.
Regards,
Raphaël Pinson
