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.
Hello. I've discovered and fixed a floating bug with symptoms matching
yours. Can you retest?
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 ...
Disk /dev/sda: 274.9 GB, 274877906944 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 2048 22527 10240 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 22528 43007 10240 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 43008 536870911 268413952 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 45056 536870911 268412928 83 Linux
Thanks,
Jeff
