Looks like grub-probefs is broken in current CVS:
$ sudo grub-probefs -v /
grub-probefs: info: changing current directory to /dev
[...]
grub-probefs: info: /dev/hda1 starts from 63
grub-probefs: info: opening the device hd0
grub-probefs: info: the size of hd0 is 156301488
grub-probefs: info: opening the device `/dev/hda'
grub-probefs: info: DOS partition 0 starts from 63
grub-probefs: info: opening hd0,0
grub-probefs: info: the size of hd0 is 156301488
grub-probefs: error: unknown device
I've performed a binary search and found that it stopped working after:
2006-06-05 Yoshinori K. Okuji <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Count partitions from 1 instead of 0 in the string representation
of partitions. Still use 0-based internally.
I'm not sure if this applies to device.map. Note that grub-mkdevicemap both
from before and after this commit generates the same output for me.
My (hand-editted) file is:
$ cat /boot/grub/device.map
(hd0) /dev/hda
I also tried with (hd1) and even (hd-1), with same result.
