In case I was not clear. BSD partition a is represented in Linux as /dev/vda7. grub-probe -t compatibility_hints -d /dev/vda7 returns hd0,msdos2 which is obviously wrong, because it refers to 2GB area on disk while partition /dev/vda7 is just 256M. I would expect either hd0,msdos2,openbsd1 or nothing depending on whether such nested partition is supported. > Slice a is the rootfs for BSD > > Slice b should traditionally be swap, but appears to be unused here, > and for some reason uses the same part of the disk as slice a, which > does look odd.

I have no idea how fdisk choses partition start. Could be a bug in fdisk. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
