I think the right solution for this would be to handle the errors in the upper layer instead of removing them. In this case, grub_raid_scan_device() is called from GRUB_MOD_INIT(raid), which doesn't handle them, and then when they're handled the only option is to abort normal mode. GRUB_MOD_INIT(raid) could handle them just fine, with something like: grub_print_error (); grub_errno = GRUB_ERR_NONE; if an error was found. -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us.
