Description Ulrich Windl 2005-08-16 11:33:08 UTC
Installation of the GRUB bootloader fails on /dev/md0 ("error parsing number").
The grub.conf contained:
setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0,0) (/dev/md,-1)
setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd1,0) (/dev/md,-1)
quit

Fixed perl-Bootloader package submitted to STABLE. 
 
There are just several other problems regarding the proposed bootloader 
location, I will fix it.

Also, in some cases, YaST prevents from intallation on MD at all, even if 
loader can be installed correctly. This is now fixed in SVN as well. 
Comment 3 Jiri Srain 2005-08-17 12:56:57 UTC
Fixed the configuration proposing in SVN. Hopefully this is everything needed 
to install loader on MD proposerly.  
  
Please, test with beta3, and reopen (or report new bug) if there are still  
problems.

I cannot promise that I still have that machine available whenever I'll receive
beta3.
