--- Begin Message ---Package: grub-pc Version: 1.96+20080724-5 Severity: important Grub2 does not work on LVM if the LVM volume group has a dash in the name. I have tried this on a clean install of Debian Lenny using the Debian Installer beta2 netinst for amd64. I have one hard disk which is one big PV for LVM: * volume group "linux-vg" (or "linuxvg") * volume "boot" * volume "root" * volume "swap" Because I have /boot on LVM, D-I installed Lilo for me and I installed grub2 by hand: # aptitude install grub-pc Then I try to install it: # grub-install /dev/sda grub-probe: error: Unknown device linux--vg-boot Autodetection of a file system module failed Please specify the module with the option "--modules" explicitly So, I do what it says: # grub-install --modules="ext2 pc lvm" /dev/sda grub-probe: error: Unknown device linux--vg-boot grub-setup: error: Unknown device linux--vg-boot However, when I install Lenny in the exact same way, only I name the volume group "linuxvg" instead of "linux-vg" then it all works just fine: # grub-install /dev/sda # update-grub <output snipped> # reboot Welcome to Grub! I have tried various other volume group names, both with and without a dash in them. When the name contains a dash, grub2 fails. When the name does not contain a dash, grub2 works. -- Package-specific info: *********************** BEGIN /proc/mounts /dev/mapper/linuxvg-root / ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/linuxvg-root /dev/.static/dev ext3 rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered 0 0 /dev/mapper/linuxvg-boot /boot ext3 rw,errors=continue,data=ordered 0 0 *********************** END /proc/mounts *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/device.map (hd0) /dev/sda *********************** END /boot/grub/device.map *********************** BEGIN /boot/grub/grub.cfg # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by /usr/sbin/update-grub using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### set default=0 set timeout=5 insmod lvm set root=(linuxvg-root) search --fs-uuid --set 07bbd91c-a0a9-4d9a-b90b-28f093798fca if font /usr/share/grub/ascii.pff ; then set gfxmode=640x480 insmod gfxterm insmod vbe terminal gfxterm fi ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### set menu_color_normal=cyan/blue set menu_color_highlight=white/blue ### END /etc/grub.d/05_debian_theme ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### END /etc/grub.d/10_hurd ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### insmod lvm set root=(linuxvg-boot) search --fs-uuid --set b04ccca6-97b5-4387-98d4-b5edb67aedc3 menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-2-amd64" { linux /vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/linuxvg-root ro initrd /initrd.img-2.6.25-2-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (single-user mode)" { linux /vmlinuz-2.6.25-2-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/linuxvg-root ro single initrd /initrd.img-2.6.25-2-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.24-1-amd64" { linux /vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/linuxvg-root ro initrd /initrd.img-2.6.24-1-amd64 } menuentry "Debian GNU/Linux, linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (single-user mode)" { linux /vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/linuxvg-root ro single initrd /initrd.img-2.6.24-1-amd64 } ### END /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ### ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### # This file is an example on how to add custom entries ### END /etc/grub.d/40_custom ### *********************** END /boot/grub/grub.cfg -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages grub-pc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.22 Debian configuration management sy ii grub-common 1.96+20080724-5 GRand Unified Bootloader, version ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii liblzo2-2 2.03-1 data compression library ii libncurses5 5.6+20080713-1 shared libraries for terminal hand grub-pc recommends no packages.
