I am trying to use grub2 with XFS. Grub1 works fine. When I try to boot with grub2, I receive the error "error: not a correct XFS BMAP node." Then grub2 drops me into rescue mode.
I am using a stock 2.6.35.13 kernel from kernel.org.
I am using the latest grub2 source from Bazaar which I fetched with the command "bzr branch http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/trunk/grub".
The XFS file system was created with the command "mkfs.xfs -f -l size=32m,version=2,lazy-count=1 -b size=512 -n size=512 -i maxpct=0 /dev/sda7".
The partition table is as follows:
fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders, total 976773168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
