Any help on this is much appreciated. grub-emu is a GRUB emulator. You'd just run it (see --help for options), then issue grub commands to reproduce the problem. In your case, it's likely to crash right away, since lvm.mod is loaded automatically. -- Robert Millan GPLv2 I know my rights; I want my phone call!

There's a chance you can reproduce your problem with grub-emu (perhaps it segfaults, or other odd behaviour). If you can, it'll be easier for you to obtain debug information from it. Otherwise we'll have to ressort to the serial cable solution that I mentioned in my previous mail. -- Robert Millan GPLv2 I know my rights; I want my phone call!
