I applied both pathces, but lvm does not work for me yet. The second
patch has
+devtype_module=`$grub_probe --target=type --device-map=${device_map}
${grubdir}`
but my grub-probe patched against latest CVS does grok --target=type, it
says
Try ``grub-probe --help'' for more information.
-t, --target=(fs|drive|device|partmap)
Should I be pulling some git branch of yours?
When I replace the line above with
+devtype_module=`$grub_probe --target=device --device-map=${device_map}
${grubdir}`
grub-install issues
grub-mkimage --output=/boot/grub/core.img --prefix=/boot/grub ext2
/dev/mapper/lvmraid-lvm1 biosdisk _chain
grub-mkimage: error: cannot stat /dev/mapper/lvmraid-lvm1.mod
(odd btw, how there is also no gpt in the list. that won't work, right?)
This grub-mkimage line gave me an idea: you have lvm loaded before ext2,
which could be why lvm inserted in core.img does not work. So I
manually did
grub-mkimage --output=/boot/grub/core.img --prefix=/boot/grub ext2 lvm pc
gpt biosdisk _chain
grub-setup '(hd0)'
but that again gave me a grub rescue> prompt with exactly the same
problems as before: error: unknown device, until I rmmod lvm, insmod lvm
by hand
(reboot)
grub rescue> set
prefix=(lvmraid-lvm0)/boot/grub
root=lvmraid-lvm0
grub rescue> insmod normal
error: unknown device
grub rescue> lsmod
