Details:

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
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x3b04f9fd

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *          63    29302559    14651248+   7  HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2        29302560   976768064   473732752+   5  Extended
/dev/sda5        29302623    58605119    14651248+  83  Linux
/dev/sda6        58605183    87907679    14651248+  83  Linux
/dev/sda7        87907743   117210239    14651248+  83  Linux
/dev/sda8       117210303   976768064   429778881   83  Linux

Let me know if there's any more information you need.
