Grub XFS normal.mod not found error

2023-07-12 Thread TechXero
Hello

Sorry for posting this again there was a formatting issue (Whitext/White bg)

I found a strange issue with XFS filesystem when used for `/boot`. Out of
<100%> it fails to install grub with the Calamares installer. However when
the commit ef7850c757fb3dd2462a512cfa0ff19c89fcc0b1 (fs/xfs: Fix issues
found while fuzzing the XFS filesystem) gets reverted installing on XFS
`/boot` works. You can reproduce it 100% with this ISO and a positive
result is possible with that ISO. Also not that installing it locally
sometimes fails also but not so often

Here are the ISOs same exact ISO only difference is one is using modded
Grub with commit reverted and the other unmodded grub from upstream...


   - Unmodded original :

   - Modded ISO :
