Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub
Ubuntu 7.10 installation, everything works OK, BUT during the last months there
were changes that become mainstream and now mkfs.ext2/3 can/will make by
default the inode size 256 (instead of the previous 'standard' of 128) and the
GRUB version used in Ubuntu CAN NOT BOOT from EXT2/3 with inode set to 256 !!!
There already IS a patch to fix that in GRUB (and it seems to be already used
in Mandriva).
Obviously the GRUB package update should be directed at both all previous
versions and the new 8.04 ...
