I tried this with Dapper-Alternate-6.06.1, and XFS still doesn't work with GRUB out of the box. 'grub-install' failed.
However, the following strategy did work (on the shell): #mount -t proc procfs /target/proc #mount -o bind /dev /target/dev #chroot /target /bin/bash #source /etc/profile # grub grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup (hd0) Now I have XFS and GRUB running just fine. I have XFS on all my filesystems (boot, root and home). -- grub-install hangs with xfs root/boot https://launchpad.net/bugs/8058 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
