Interesting that Dell got bitten by this, they are probably not using RAID like in this bug. Congratulations with your new Ubuntu Dell, Lonnie :) The convert() and find_device() functions inside update-grub are not pretty. They are also duplicated in grub-install. I hope it will be all rewritten

This is still a problem on 6-6-2007: http://www.howtoadvice.com/DellUbuntu/ The update-grub command does a poor job of determining which partition the operating system in on. Instead of using the "#groot" line in /boot/grub/menu.lst why doesn't it just look at the last kernel's root partition and

I think we can leave this bug open: 1) The installer should have written #groot=(hd0,4) in the first place. 2) if the #groot gets lost (like it did in Giuseppe's case because he removed the#) and it needs to be autogenerated, it should guess better than (hd0,0). ** Changed in: grub (Ubuntu)

Thanks. This is update-grub trying to be smarter than it is - it will try to detect a RAID and pick the right raw device but fails, and falls back to (hd0,0). (IMHO it's a separate bug that update-grub at all tries to change these #groot or #kopt values that users have configured. That should mayb
