FWIW, I've had no problems w/ 'grub', EL4, and cciss devices on XC. I'm
using the SI 3.4.1 release.

I finally got around to trying out SystemImager with RedHat EL4 on a
system with cciss disks and it died a horrible death. I've managed to
track it down to the part where grub-install inspects some files with
'dump' command of the form:
grub-install <<EOF
dump (hd0,2)/boot/grub/stage1 filename
quit
EOF
and it blows up with an error 'selected disk does not exist'. To
futher verify the problem I simply went into the grub shell and entered
the dump command manually. Same thing. I even tried some other
commands that take a device name as an argument and they all give me the
same thing.
If I go back to the system from which I pulled the image, these commands
work just fine. So it would appear to me there is something about the
environment that grub expects to be there that isn't or is broken.
Now for the real clue -- if I go into the grub shell on the source
system and type 'dump (' followed by a TAB, it completes the command by
filling in 'hd' and shows me there are 2 devices to choose from. If I
try the same thing on the machine I'm trying to instal when I hit the
TAB all it does is echo the command. Clearly something is wrong!
Any thoughts?
