[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#644100: PyGrub is missing bootable flag in partition
Hello, PyGrub scans the partition table for the first partition, where the "bootable"-flag is set. If no partition is marked, PyGrub falls back to the first partition from the table. This looks like a Bug in xen-create-image (or whatever), which doesn't set the bootbale flag and doesn't put the partition containing /boot/ as the first partition.
