Hi, I'm sorry, I forget about an important module, biosdisk, would you run the test again with the following modules ? biosdisk pc ext2 lvm raid The uncompressed part, without decompresser, is about 1K. If we count the decompresser, I'd say it's between 1K to 3K. -- Bean _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
