This is wrong - the disk you boot from will always be hd0 (no matter what the map file says - that's only used after the system's booted). You need to remap the hd0 device for each disk: grub --no-floppy <<EOF root (hd0,1) setup (hd0) device (hd0) /dev/sdb root (hd0,1) setup (hd0) device (hd0) /dev/sdc root (hd0,1) setup (hd0) device (hd0) /dev/sdd root (hd0,1) setup (hd0) EOF
For my enlightenment: if the file system is mounted, then hd2,1 is a sensible grub operation, isn't it? For the record, given my original script when I boot I am able to edit the grub boot options to read
root (hd2,1) and proceed to boot. -- Moshe Yudkowsky * moshe@xxxxxxxxx * www.pobox.com/~moshe "I love deadlines... especially the whooshing sound they make as they fly past." -- Dermot Dobson - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
