Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.96+20080601-2
Severity: important


I am using evms, grub should be checking /dev/sda1 but instead it looks
at /dev/evms/sda1 (/dev/evms/sda1 is the correct volume to use when
mounting, but not when accessing the device directly).  Here is the
output of dpkg:

Setting up grub-pc (1.96+20080601-2) ...
Generating core.img
grub-probe: error: Cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/evms/sda1.  Check
your device.map.

Auto-detection of a filesystem module failed.
Please specify the module with the option `--modules' explicitly.
dpkg: error processing grub-pc (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

## ## Start Default Options ##
## default kernel options
## default kernel options for automagic boot options
## If you want special options for specific kernels use kopt_x_y_z
## where x.y.z is kernel version. Minor versions can be omitted.
## e.g. kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
##      kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro
##      kopt_2_6_8_2_686=root=/dev/hdc2 ro
# kopt=root=/dev/hdb4 ro

## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=(hd0,0)

## should update-grub create alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. alternative=true
##      alternative=false
# alternative=true

## should update-grub lock alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. lockalternative=true
##      lockalternative=false
# lockalternative=false

## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=

## should update-grub lock old automagic boot options
## e.g. lockold=false
##      lockold=true
# lockold=false

## Xen hypervisor options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenhopt=

## Xen Linux kernel options to use with the default Xen boot option
# xenkopt=console=tty0

## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
##      altoptions=(single-user) single
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single

## controls how many kernels should be put into the menu.lst
## only counts the first occurence of a kernel, not the
## alternative kernel options
## e.g. howmany=all
##      howmany=7
# howmany=all

## should update-grub create memtest86 boot option
## e.g. memtest86=true
##      memtest86=false
# memtest86=true

## should update-grub adjust the value of the default booted system
## can be true or false
# updatedefaultentry=false

Closing the report.
lenny has been now released without it.
Now I think it's just not worth the effort.
popcon only lists 115 users for evms.
Probable we'd need to duplicate the whole lvm code just for it.
