embr appended, as per request.
This looks already not quite standard, but nothing suspicious. Let's try more simple way - please download attached script walkpart.sh, execute ./walkpart.sh /dev/sda and paste output. It should dump all EBR records. (In reply to comment #19)
++ echo '(hd0,msdos6)'
/dev/sda5 should be grub device (hd0,msdos5). The (hd0,msdos6) is nonsensical as that is your Windows NTFS partition.
That does not really explain the the problem in this bug report. Yes, grub2 will count partitions differently, but it will do it consistently everywhere, so as long as you use only grub2 tools to create configuration it will work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
