[Bug 988583] Re: grub-mount hangs when update-grub is ran

[Colin Watson]

OK, we can consider trying to track down the relevant commit(s) for
12.04.3, then.  It may not be quite straightforward because there were
several relevant changes and I'd need to work out exactly which one
caused them.

If anyone has an HFS+ filesystem whose contents they might be able to
share publicly and which isn't too gigantic, it might help to take an
image of it with dd and post it somewhere.

Title:
  grub-mount hangs when update-grub is ran

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “grub2” source package in Precise:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Whenever my system tries to build the grub.cfg, the grub-mount hangs and I have to kill it 3 times before the command completes.
  I had a look on the internet and I got this links which is related :

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2012-02/msg00206.html

  To sum up, I have a 3 fs on my disks which are hfs+ and grub-mount
  hangs each time it tries to process them.

  Problem seems to have been fixed upstream.
