Package: debian-installer
Version: 20090123
When installing Lenny on a HP DL360 / DL380 server Grub is installed on
the wrong device.
The server is booted from CD, during network detection, the bnx2 firmware
is required. A USB key is inserted to provide the firmware. The disks are
then partitioned and the install proceeds, grub is installed on the master
boot record. On reboot with the USB stick still connected, GRUB loads and
the os is booted from the internal disks. Without the USB drive, the OS
refuses to boot.
The internal disks are presented as /dev/cciss/c0d0 devices, the USB drive
is presented as /dev/sda.
Running grub-install to the /dev/cciss/c0d0 device after install resolves
the problem but the installer appears to be picking the wrong device when
grub is installed
