Severity: important
Hi,
I found that the fromhd cheatcode does not work for NTFS partitions.
Of the following grub boot menu,
title GRML 0.9
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot.grml/isolinux/linux26 welcome noeject noprompt
ramdisk_size=1000
00 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=791\ nomce fromhd=/dev/sda2
initrd /boot.grml/isolinux/minirt26.gz
savedefault
boot
the fromhd=/dev/sda2 won't work -- can't find grml image, while
the fromhd=/dev/sda8 works fine.
Both /dev/sda2 & /dev/sda8 have identical /GRML root directory. The
only difference is that my sda2 is NTFS and sda8 is FAT.
Test environment: grml 0.9.
