Package: lilo-installer Severity: normal lilo-installer fails to run if root is on software raid. The disc_offered variable is not set to anthing, because /dev/md/ does not contain anything named "disc". Then this line fails:
disc_offered=$(mapdevfs "$disc_offered_devfs")
And this failure crashes the whole postinst. I worked around this as
follows:
disc_offered=$(mapdevfs "$disc_offered_devfs") || true
if [ -z "$disc_offered" ]; then
disc_offered="$bootfs"
fi
But that's not quite right, that gives me a menu with who instances of
/dev/md0 on it; one claims to be the MBR.
