[Bug 1183915] Re: grub-probe confused by dmraid

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package grub2 - 2.00-19ubuntu1

---------------
grub2 (2.00-19ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
    - Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
    - Add crashkernel option.
    - Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed.
    - Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed.
    - Check hardware support before using gfxpayload=keep.
    - Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode.
    - In recovery mode, add nomodeset to the Linux kernel arguments, and
      remove the 'set gfxpayload=keep' command.
    - Handle probing striped DM-RAID devices.

grub2 (2.00-19) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Merge from Ubuntu:
    - debian/build-efi-images: Where possible, make use of the device path
      derived from the EFI Loaded Image Protocol to compute the prefix
      (LP: #1097570).
    - debian/build-efi-images: Add a netboot image target to our set of
      prebuilt EFI images (thanks, Steve Langasek).
  * Backport from upstream:
    - Handle partitions on non-512B EFI disks (LP: #1065281).

  [ Phillip Susi ]
  * restore_mkdevicemap.patch: Fix dmraid uuid check to look for "DMRAID-"
    anywhere instead of only at the start, since kpartx prefixes it with
    "partN-" (LP: #1183915).
