(2nd try, mailer swallowed the attachment) Thank you for replying. Of course, it is a bug report. The steps to create the image are very detailed and should be enough to reproduce the bug on a FreeBSD/amd64 system. Here's a 362k 7z-compressed image of a 25MB disk that contains one slice 's1' with a BSD partition 'a' and a UFS2 filesystem on it: http://www.cordula.ws/tempdir/bsddisk.7z Don't expect it to boot, because grub-install wasn't able to complete the task (grub-probe failed as in the long mail). The file system contains the /boot/grub/* files though: those were properly installed by grub-install. Just not the MBR. If I can provide more help, please do ask. :) >> TIA, >> -cpghost. > > -- > Regards > Vladimir 'φ-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
