Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub-common
Description: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release: 10.04
grub-common 1.98-1ubuntu7
update-grub creates a grub.cfg file that does not "insmod" partition-
handling modules. As a result, I cannot boot from partitions on disks
with "msdos" partitioning.
The fix is straightforward. In /usr/lib/grub/grub-mkconfig_lib edit the
prepare_grub_to_access_device function to add this "partmap" section:
# Abstraction modules aren't auto-loaded.
abstraction="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=abstraction`"
for module in ${abstraction} ; do
echo "insmod ${module}"
done
partmap="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=partmap`"
for module in ${partmap} ; do
echo "insmod ${module}"
done
fs="`${grub_probe} --device ${device} --target=fs`"
for module in ${fs} ; do
echo "insmod ${module}"
done
