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 for a hardy and dapper vm. vmbuilder on intrepid uses inode size 256 for a hardy vm. My guess is vmbuilder on intrepid will also use inode size 256, which is not supported by dapper's grub. I guess you need to pass -I 128 to mkfs.ext2 to make it work. Unfortunately I couldn't find the right place to do that, so I could not test this yet. -- Dapper images fail to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
