In any case it did not work, same error as before in strace.
As near as I can tell, the problem is in write_to_partition in device.c which always adds the partition number.
Backing up some, in devwrite, in disk_io.c, if I add code to make it take the else branch instead of the (current_partition != 0xffffff) branch, things do seem to work. I don't know enough about grub to know why it wouldn't have a valid partition number. Any ideas?
Thanyou once again, Dave
