** Description changed: update-grub runs /usr/sbin/grub-probe - /usr/sbin/grub-probe runs ["zpool", "status", poolname] + Without libzfslinux support compiled in, /usr/sbin/grub-probe runs + ["zpool", "status", poolname] to find out ZFS info. zpool responds with device names as used at (I think!) pool creation time. Often, this is /dev/disk/by-id/... names, without the path. grub-probe then parses the output, and takes the names of devices, and if they do not start with a "/", it prepends "/dev/". It then tests the existence of the path name of the device. it fails. grub-probe then returns something like /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `/dev/ata- ST31000333AS_99999999-part1'. The actual path is of course /dev/disk/by-id/ST31000333AS_99999999-part1 + + It can prepend smarter than "/dev" or it can understand ZFS natively, to + fix the problem.
