Package: grub-common Version: 1.99-17 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
For some unknown reason, which is clearly beyond me, grub-mkdevicemap decided that it is a good idea to read out the complete cciss device which is 1) a 2TB raid 2) not mounted 3) contains two partitions, one with a test linux system on The problem with this is, that the install takes hours (i'm not joking). And killing grub-mkdevicema doesn't work, because the process locks up in unterruptible state (D). The only way around it is to reboot, which is kind of dangerouse with only a half installed grub.
