* Added parameters required
Nick, I am surprised Gutsy works for you with inode size 256, given the
grub change was first made in Hardy (and even Debian got that fix only
in 0.97-30, Feb 2008). So I tested this and for me the Gutsy vm fails to
boot with grub error 2, just like Dapper did.

Yep, it failed for me when I redid the tests, so now hardy is in 128bit
as well. Thanks.

Recently I had the grub error 2 when I wanted to move my system from an old
hard-disk to a new one.
It turned out recent mkfs will create the filesystem with inode size 256. This
is only supported by grub since hardy (grub 0.97-29ubuntu19).
ubuntu-vm-builder on hardy uses inode size 128 both
Ah, that was not too hard.
In /usr/share/pyshared/VMBuilder/disk.py line 282/283, I changed:
def mkfs_fstype(self):
return { TYPE_EXT2: ['mkfs.ext2', '-F'], TYPE_EXT3: ['mkfs.ext3',
'-F'], TYPE_XFS: ['mkfs.xfs'], TYPE_SWAP: ['mkswap'] }[self.type]
into:
def mkfs_fstype(self):

Thanks a lot to your
rev 250 of trunk includes the fix for the inode.
I decided to use 128 bit inode for dapper, edgy and feisty, as gutsy and
seems to boot with 256 bit. Will run some test again on all suite to check.
