I'm tested grub2 on jaunty as per
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/Grub2Testing
I started with a separate hdd (ext3 partition) for /boot and managed to
get grub2 going via both a chainloading and a native setup.
Next I want to remove my /boot hard drive (since its an old noisy slow
drive) so I wish to boot from my root ext4 partition on LVM . Its
volume name is Ubuntu-jaunty
First I unmounted /boot and remounted it as /media/oldboot
Then I coppied everything from from /media/oldboot to /boot
I then tried to install grub2 into my first hard drive
r...@beast:~# grub-install /dev/sda
error: Unknown metadata header
error: Unknown metadata header
grub-probe: error: no mapping exists for `Ubuntu-jaunty'
