I've just filed a similar bug report before I found this report. The problem I reported was that (for me) the part_gpt module needs to be loaded for grub to find the OSX partition. So one possible solution is that grub.cfg should list:
insmod hfsplus insmod part_gpt set root=(hd0,2) the part_gpt module for GPT partitioning, should then give grub2 access to the (hd0,2) partition. (The hanging blue screen may be because the dsdt.aml acpi/bios file was not properly loaded ... on my machine without the dsdt.aml file properly loading OSX will hang for quite a while at the blue screen, but will eventually load. It seems to be an OSX/SATA issue on my machine.) -- [Karmic, grub2] fails to start OS X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/388135 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
