Re: FC4T1 GRUB is always installed into MBR

Thank you.

I read the /sbin/grub-install script.
I found that new /sbin/grub-install script has a hack for software-RAID1,
and this hack forces installation drives to a MBR.

    install_device=`resolve_symlink "$install_device"`
    for install_drive in `find_real_devs $install_device` ; do
        install_drive=`convert $install_drive | sed 's/,[0-9]*)/)/'`
        if [ "x$install_drive" = "x" ]; then
            exit 1
        fi
        install_drives="${install_drives} ${install_drive}"
    done

The sed always bites partition number part of GRUB-style drive name.
This is only a case for /dev/foobar style of install device.
So, specify install device in GRUB style can be a workaround. like this

/sbin/grub-install hd0,1
