No, I doubt we will be updating Intrepid for this; it would take a lot
of QA to make sure we hadn't broken grub for other people, and we won't
be releasing updated installation images for Intrepid anyway. Sorry.
Jaunty will be released soon, and you could use the beta ...

ubiquity (1.11.5) jaunty; urgency=low

  [ Evan Dandrea ]
  * Full screen the window when in ONLY_UBIQUITY mode.  The extra screen
real estate makes the timezone map, among other widgets, easier to
use.
  * Modified the keyboard setup page to produce a more visually obvious
suggestion.
  * Automatic update of included source packages: grub-installer
1.36ubuntu1, localechooser 2.09ubuntu1, user-setup 1.23ubuntu8.

  [ Mario Limonciello ]
  * Adjust logic for detecting incomplete language support.  Just
because a package doesn't exist doesn't mean that language support
isn't all there.  Some packages don't yet provide language-support-XY
packages. (LP: #290398)

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Remove old XFS-on-/boot validation, no longer needed now that
grub-install has been fixed (LP: #8058).
  * Default hostname to 'oem-laptop' or 'oem-desktop' as appropriate in OEM
mode, to allow OEM installations to be fully preseeded (thanks, Twisted
Lincoln, Inc.; LP: #321341).

[Bug 8058] Re: grub-install hangs with xfs root/boot

2009-01-23 Thread Colin Watson
I've updated the Debian bug link to one with much more detail. It
appears that:

  * the original problem I ran into when trying to use xfs_freeze -f / 
xfs_freeze -u as a sequence point to force data to be written such that it 
would be readable by grub was fixed by the XFS developers upstream around Linux 
2.6.19/20 (there's some speculation about exactly when)
  * grub-install has now been fixed in Debian to avoid writing data to the 
filesystem while it is frozen, which is the cause of the lockups addressed by 
the link in the previous comment
  * Frans Pop has verified that a machine previously unable to install grub on 
XFS during installation now can

Therefore, I plan to merge this all into Jaunty and see how it goes!

  * New patch, clear_esc_message, clears the Press `ESC' message when
leaving this loop: at least a newline needs to be output for upcoming
messages to be started on the first column, so it's easiest to simply
clear the line completely as the message isn't needed anymore.

  * Cherry-pick from Debian, fixing LP: #8058 (not merging yet due to some
revision control awkwardness):
- patches/xfs_freeze.diff: Replace with a new patch, which thaws XFS
  inmediately after freezing it.  (Closes: #239111, #243835, #246111,
  #309218, #425367) hopefully for good this time.  Thanks everyone who

grub-installer (1.36ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian (XFS change fixes LP: #8058). Remaining
changes:
- Show the grub menu and raise the menu timeout if other operating
  systems are installed.
- Ask grub-installer/only_debian at medium priority.
- Remove splash boot parameter unless debian-installer/framebuffer=true.
- If / or /boot are on a removable device, install GRUB there by
  default.
- Only mount /target/proc if it isn't already mounted.
- Support setting OVERRIDE_UNSUPPORTED_OS in the environment to force
  grub-installer to use its default MBR selection method despite there
  being unsupported operating systems on the disk.
- Unless grub-installer/make_active is preseeded to false, mark the
  partition to which GRUB is being installed as bootable, or failing
  that the first available primary partition on the disk to which GRUB
  is being installed.
- Support grub-installer/bootdev_directory preseeding to make use of the
  relative path feature of grub4dos, so that we can point grub4dos at
  part of a disk for Wubi. Setting this disables normal grub
  installation, but still generates a device.map; it also hides the
  menu.
- Only support grub-installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy by preseeding
  for now.
- Handle cases where /boot is bind-mounted.
- Add another guard against calling 'udevadm info' with an empty device
  name.
- Add support for writing an MBR on each disk in an mdadm-managed RAID
  providing /boot.
- Properly make use of output from os-prober to configure the booting of
  other operating systems on dmraid arrays. Attempt to guess where in
  the device map the array belongs, by substituting the first drive in
  the dmraid array for the dmraid array device node itself, and removing
  any reference to other member disks of the array.
- Add support for lpia.
- Handle /boot being on a virtio device.
- Set a sensible default boot device when /cdrom is not iso9660, as this
  is probably a USB install and (hd0) does not make sense when
  installing from a removable disk.
- Use rootnoverify rather than root when chain-loading Microsoft
  operating systems.
- 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.

grub-installer (1.36) unstable; urgency=low

  * Allow to install grub when /boot is on XFS. Since version 0.97-47lenny2
grub supports XFS so it can be installed without hanging grub-installer.

following site helped me to install grub:
http://anti.teamidiot.de/nei/2006/10/debian_grubinstall_freeze_on_x/

i wanted to switch from lilo to grub so this is what i did to install grub
when ubuntu starts i logged in two of the consoles (strg+alt+F1 and F2)
in the first console i started sudo install-grub /dev/sda
when it hangs now i switched to the second console and typed: sudo xfs_freeze 
-u . repeat it until grub-install finishes on the first console!

it works now!

[Bug 8058] Re: grub-install hangs with xfs root/boot

2008-02-28 Thread Colin Watson
This bug does not need further comments confirming its continued
existence. I expect that it will continue to exist for some time yet,
because it arises from a fundamental design issue on the part of XFS (it
skates close to the edge of what POSIX permits, and thereby makes it
impossible for grub-install to reliably force data out to disk such that
its subsequent raw disk reads will work). I have heard that GRUB 2 may
resolve this by not needing to know the sector number for stage 1.5, but
I wouldn't hold your breath just yet. When we switch to GRUB 2 (not for
Hardy), we will revisit this bug and see if it still exists.

I do not see that this prevents Ubuntu being taken seriously in
enterprise environments. I have yet to encounter an enterprise
environment that required /boot to be on XFS.

2007-04-04 Thread John Aasen
I have got /boot in an xfs partition and have been able to install grub.

The grub-install script did not complete and stayed in a D+ mode as reported by 
ps.
This seemed to be caused by the xfs_freeze performed
if xfs_freeze -f ${grubdir} ; then xfs_frozen=true ; fi

My workaround was to run the following from a console window:
sudo xfs_freeze -u /boot

Then the grub_install completed successfully, and grub has worked
perfectly since.

I tried this with Dapper-Alternate-6.06.1, and XFS still doesn't work
with GRUB out of the box. 'grub-install' failed.

However, the following strategy did work (on the shell):

#mount -t proc procfs /target/proc
#mount -o bind /dev /target/dev
#chroot /target /bin/bash
#source /etc/profile
# grub
grub root (hd0,0)
grub setup (hd0)

Now I have XFS and GRUB running just fine. I have XFS on all my
filesystems (boot, root and home).
