Re: grub in mac

[address@hidden]

I fixed the problem, the root cause is : the following if-loop is never be true 
in apple

#if GRUB_DISK_DEVS_ARE_CHAR
  if (S_ISCHR (st.st_mode))
#else
  if (S_ISBLK (st.st_mode))
#endif
    ret = grub_util_get_fd_size_os (fd, name, log_secsize);


So i force the line "ret = grub_util_get_fd_size_os (fd, name, log_secsize);” 
to be execute, then everything work. I am using this command "hdiutil attach 
-imagekey diskimage-class=CRawDiskImage -nomount hd.img” to mount my loopback.

thanks
