I have seen the /boot/grub/stage1 error and apparently it seems to have
gone away when I use the latest SystemImager 3.5.x - you might want to
give that a try.

I have a hack for that - basically if you sync /etc/mtab with
/proc/mounts, it works.  Look under /usr/lib/systemconfig/Boot/Grub.pm
and modify between line 230 and 231 and add:

system("cp /proc/mounts /etc/mtab");

That should do the trick - let me know how it goes.

Cheers,

Bernard
