I zeroed into this problem and it's repeatable. It's the partition table + reiserfs. Works fine except when the disk partition contains 2 or more physical partitions and an extended partitions. Use fdisk to create the following partitions: 1) create physical partition 1. 10MB 2) create physical partition 2. 10MB 3) create extended partition using the remaining space 4) create logical partition 5 using the remaining space 5) mkreiserfs on partition 5, mount and grub2 on it 6) reboot and it hangs Works if: 1) Partition 1 removed or 2) use non-reiserfs for partition 5 Here's my partitions ...
