I have used grub on Apple systems in the past but it's quite possible
that I ended up fixing up the path by hand. To be honest I haven't
booted any of my Apple systems in a while, but I still have some I
can dig out to test if needed.
Some more comments below...
So here, ofpathname gets confused by the fact that Linux shows ATA
devices as scsi (which is a Linux'ism). ofpath has workarounds to deal
with that which should probably be ported over.
Ouch. I think ofpathname is still maintained by some of our IBM guys
isn't it ? Might be worth digging there (or fixing it up !).
Nathan, do you know anything about this ?
I can test if you are willing to fix the script :)
Cheers,
Ben.
