Re: [Xen-users] How to get pygrub to load grub2 guest on Squeeze Dom0.

[Kyle Lexmond <kyl191@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, last thought. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=745335
mentions a grub2 bug with pygrub's handling of F16's installation of
grub2. M Young summarized it as "By default Fedora 16 installs a Bios
boot partition as the first GPT partition to contain grub2 boot code,
and the grub2 configuration files are in the GPT second partition.
Pygrub currently only checks the first partition."

has a mention of a patch, but I'm not sure if it's backported to Xen
4.0, since it seems to be for Xen 4.1.
