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
