Okay, I just installed the version from lucid-proposed: torsten@sharokan:~$ dpkg -l|grep grub ii grub-common 1.98-1ubuntu13 GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (common files) ii grub-pc 1.98-1ubuntu13 GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS version)
I had to run # grub-install /dev/sda to actually update the grub installation (it would be nice if installing the new package would do that automatically, but this is of course a risk wrt. possible regressions). I created a snapshot again and low and behold: I can boot just fine even with existing LVM snapshots. Thanks! I am all for moving this to lucid-updates. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/563895 Title: grub2 fails to boot or install when an LVM snapshot exists To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/563895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
