Hi there

There have been reports about grub errors when upgrading from Squeeze to Wheezy. This occurs hen using a 'special' filesystem such as raid or lvm. EG;

~# grub-install /dev/sda /usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Your core.img is unusually large. It won't fit in the embedding area.. /usr/sbin/grub-setup: error: embedding is not possible, but this is required when the root device is on a RAID array or LVM volume.

This is caused by a core.img > 31232 bytes. The solution is to start the first partition at the 2nd cylinder or further. There is nothing about this in the release notes. Does this mean that this problem no longer exists? Or is it a release notes bug?


Regards,
Rob
