My comments #32/#37 are to _ensure_ this is a grub bug (which I doubt). If you could reproduce this problem in such a scenario, a buggy BIOS would definitely be ruled out. But things aren't black and white. between C/H/S only and full LBA48 support there's various degrees, and many possible BIOS bugs. Depending on the BIOS, we can boot from as high as 2TB upper limit. PMs: depending on the service level agreement and age of the hardware, we should be prepared for a bootable area of less than 2TB. Thomas: putting the boot area _first_ is always a good idea, and _always_ better than behind a few G's of swap. As I mentioned, Unixen are doing this for ages, so the risk is as low as can be. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
