Hi all
I have compiled and installed grub-0.97.tar.gz on FreeBSD 7.0 (i386).
It shows the grub cannot recognize ufs2 file systems.
grub> root (hd1,0,
Possible partitions are:
Partition num: 0, [BSD sub-partitions immediately follow]
BSD Partition num: 'a', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
BSD Partition num: 'b', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
BSD Partition num: 'd', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
BSD Partition num: 'e', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
BSD Partition num: 'f', Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0xa5
All stage1, stage2 and *_stage1_5 are in /boot/grub/.
The fstype used for bsdlabel for b is swap and for others its 4.2BSD.
Files systems were created as follows:
newfs -U /dev/ad2s1a
newfs /dev/ad2s1d
newfs -U /dev/ad2s1e
newfs -U /dev/ad2s1f
Do others experience this issue? Do I need to patch the Grub to recognize ufs2 file systems?
Your reply is very much appreciated.
Kind regards
Unga
