Public bug reported: Focal includes grub 2.04 which brings support for f2fs. I created a new Focal install with an f2fs volume as root, however grub is unable to read the volume at all and so cannot get the volume's UUID or read from the grub folder.
The volume is visible and automounted under media when I boot from the Focal USB installer image. All files show up and the drive behaves fine in the USB installer environment. At the grub command prompt, (hd0,gpt3) is the f2fs partition. grub> ls (hd0,gpt3) Partition hd0,gpt3: No known filesystem detected - Partition start at 103424KiB - Total size 56114176KiB $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Focal Fossa (development branch) Release: 20.04 $ apt-cache policy grub2 grub2: Installed: 2.04-1ubuntu22 Candidate: 2.04-1ubuntu22 Version table: *** 2.04-1ubuntu22 500 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com focal/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: f2fs focal grub grub2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1868664 Title: grub 2.04 can't read f2fs volume To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1868664/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
