Description cyrillic 2010-02-02 00:52:52 UTC

sys-boot/grub-9999 is no longer able to detect the filesystem with grub-probe, which means grub-install no longer works either.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge grub
2. grub-install /dev/md0


Actual Results:  
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: unknown filesystem.
Auto-detection of a filesystem module failed.
Please specify the module with the option `--modules' explicitly.

Expected Results:  
Successful grub installation

This is the commit that broke things for me :

2010-01-27  Vladimir Serbinenko  <phcoder@gmail.com>

        * kern/disk.c (grub_disk_read): Fix offset computation when reading
        last sectors.

Please, report this issue upstream.

Still reassigning on maintainers so they be aware about this issue and resolve it as they deem necessary.

Comment 2 cyrillic 2010-02-03 23:30:32 UTC

I did not see an easy way to submit bugs upstream, but it seems they have already fixed the issue starting with EBZR_REVISION=2152
