I applied the patched grub-pc and grub-common packages from my PPA https://launchpad.net/~nutznboltz/+archive/lucid-grub2-skip-lvm-snapshots to an HP DL-165 G5 today. Prior to applying the patches the system was unbootable.
One thing that I did have to do was: 1. aptitude purge grub-pc grub-common 2. cd /boot/grub 3. rm -r * 4. cd - Then install the patched packages. For some reason the APT "purge" command leaves many files under /boot/grub -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563895 Title: grub2 fails to boot or install when an LVM snapshot exists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/563895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
