We could e.g. just go with grub1 for virtio disks. I'm not completely certain that grub1 installation works either. The crux of the matter is that /dev/sda provides /dev/disk/by-id/* files and /dev/vda does not, it only provides /dev/disk/by-uuid/* and /dev/disk/by-path/* files. The grub installation falls over since it can't find any /dev/disk/by-id/* files _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~vmbuilder Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~vmbuilder More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
