Recent grub no longer detects non-LUKS ("plain dm-crypt") devices properly. I think I tracked it down; the following patch fixes the problem for me.
commit 4eb670dc50fe84012ec3e1f226ef9e94d8fa4b2b Author: Corey Hickey <bugfoo...@fatooh.org> Date: Sun Oct 30 22:35:32 2016 -0700 devmapper: fix detection of non-LUKS CRYPT grub_util_get_dm_abstraction() does a string comparison of insufficient length. When using a UUID such as "CRYPT-PLAIN-sda6_crypt", the function returns GRUB_DEV_ABSTRACTION_LUKS. This results in the error: ./grub-probe: error: disk `cryptouuid/sda6_crypt' not found. This appears to be a copy/paste error introduced in: a10e7a5a8918bea6e2632055129fa9b516fe965a The bug was (apparently) latent until revealed by: 3bca85b4184f74995a7cc2791e432173fde26d34 Signed-off-by: Corey Hickey <bugfoo...@fatooh.org> diff --git a/grub-core/osdep/devmapper/getroot.c b/grub-core/osdep/devmapper/getroot.c index 72e5582..a13a39c 100644 --- a/grub-core/osdep/devmapper/getroot.c +++ b/grub-core/osdep/devmapper/getroot.c @@ -143,7 +143,7 @@ grub_util_get_dm_abstraction (const char *os_dev) grub_free (uuid); return GRUB_DEV_ABSTRACTION_LVM; } - if (strncmp (uuid, "CRYPT-LUKS1-", 4) == 0) + if (strncmp (uuid, "CRYPT-LUKS1-", 12) == 0) { grub_free (uuid); return GRUB_DEV_ABSTRACTION_LUKS; Thanks, Corey _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
