I suspect this change: * kern/elf.c (grub_elf32_load): Get the physical address after the hook function is called, so that it's possible to change it inside the hook. It's just because it involves ELF files, and PowerPC kernels are ELF files. You may want to use the git clone of the repository for bisection: git://repo.or.cz/grub2.git That commit is 3e29769b6e7d9dce668e719f87fd3508bdef3bcf > I've found out the last version that works is 1.96+20080219-2, with > latest changelog entry: > > > 2008-02-19 Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> That's 53094f1fa0d674e155fe137eff5c8b6a4f7d33d2 > The next Debian version available is 20080228-1, with the following > changelog entry: > > 2008-02-28 Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> That's 3532b06122258d8551b7e7f37cd03c0c5d3633c8 Happy bisecting :-) > I mentioned the grub-probe "(hd)" problem back in February, but I > don't > remember reaching any conclusion on what the correct behaviour should > be.

That should work for the absolute majority of the users. Sophisticated cross-device installs should provide the needed mappings on the command line. But I don't think I have ever suggested that publicly. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
