Re: bug in grub2-install

[Vladimir 'phcoder' Serbinenko]

/boot needs to be readadble by grub on boot. Failing that your system won't boot and hence such install is not implemented. 

Skip-fs -probe  controls the check of the device that will hold bootsector, not of /boot

Grub-install is not installing due to unknown filesystem *even when

This is absolutely maddening.

# grub2-install --skip-fs-probe /dev/sdb
Installing for i386-pc platform.
grub2-install: error: unknown filesystem.
