From some earlier post I gathered that biosdisk part_msdos ext2 were auto-detected anyway and not necessary. Could somebody check whether they are necessary are not? > $ROOTCMD update-grub > $ROOTCMD grub-install --modules="biosdisk part_msdos ext2 lvm" --no-floppy > "(hd0)" > $ROOTCMD grub-setup "(hd0)" > > exit $error > > Having support for raid and serial and lvm seems to be to big for > core.img. I'm ok with dropping serial; is dropping raid necessary as well? Does it in fact mean that one cannot combine raid and lvm? > @Michael: I think we need some tweaking here. device2grub does not > work correctly for LVM boot support for me.

As far as I understand device2grub just parses this file, so probably it just requires a bit of tweaking. I'd be more than happy to make the grub2 stuff of experimental (and actually also mainline FAI) finally work; it's just that I don't have any system running grub2 and got not hosts to do any testing. I'm therefor relying on your help. Best, Michael
