This patch adds some dmraid support to update-grub, at least as much as for the software raids:
If update-grub detects your root on /dev/mapper it will check if it is a dmraid, and then decode which real disk this resides on. (Currently, it will pick the first disk from the raid set.) For upgrade-grub to write out the correct #groot from this, the real disk has to appear in device.map, for instance: hd(0) /dev/sda Making upgrade-grub to directly interpret a raid device in device.map and not worry about the linux name of the real device is work-in-progress: hd(0) /dev/mapper/your_raid_device I am not even sure that this should be done, depending on what other utilities might use device.map for. ** Attachment added: "adds dmraid support to update-grub" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5161101/update-grub.dmraid.diff -- grub should support dmraid fakeraids https://launchpad.net/bugs/73141 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
