My feeling from what Andrei said earlier is that it is supposed to work. nativedisk is supposed to load the whole usb stack including usbms (USB Mass Storage) before activating any of the modules. That means to me that by the time they are all done being activated, the whole stack of modules necessary to communicate from USB storage devices is loaded. > Judging by grub output after invoking nativedisk command, grub > changes the way it accesses devices and after the change its root > folder becomes inaccessible. Sure. But that's not the symptoms of my problem. After I have run nativedisk, my system is locked up hard. Even CTRL-ALT-DEL won't reboot it. To me that means a bug in the GRUB modules is seizing up the hardware. > May be this is because sd-card drivers are unavailable or for some > other reason. But that would still not lead to a hard lock up. Just grub not being able to read the disk. It should still take input, echo it back, try to run commands, and possibly fail due to a lack of disk.
