Okay, I'm not sure how this happened today, but I was installing Slackware onto a laptop system I acquired and decided to try BtrFS as an experiment.
I setup my GPT partition table as such:
/dev/sda1 - ext2 - 10MB - /boot
/dev/sda2 - EF02 - 35KB - gpt-bios
/dev/sda3 - swap - 8GB - swap
/dev/sda4 - btrfs - 66GB - /
Everything installed fine and was going along until I chrooted into Slackware and attempted to configure grub2 to boot the system. When I ran grub-mkconfig is spat out this error:
Code:
grub-probe: [error] Could not find /dev. Is /dev mounted?
I even tried using chroot to download grub-2.02~beta2 and use the SlackBuild from source to rebuild the package. It too failed.
After trying to even manually mount /dev, which only seemed to keep remounting itself again and again, I gave up and decided to go back to my normal usage of JFS.
Has anyone else had this same error when trying to use BtrFS on GPT?
This never happened when I used MBR actually.
