It only prevents use of the floppy device inside the search command, which should be obvious. Did you install GRUB 2 to a MBR of a different disk then /boot/grub is on? Check if `echo $prefix' or just `set' in GRUB's commandline shows prefix as a normal GRUB device (hdx,y)/boot/grub or as (UUID=abc123...)/boot/grub If it's UUID= it can happen that it still accesses the floppy device. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- grub2 shows 'biosdisk read error', then boots https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/396564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
