Re: How to deal with fatal device seeks?

[adrian15]

I have digged the git log for partition related commits just in case you 
might think that they have something to do with my problem

(From 2.00 release to current head on master branch).

I have tried to filter them. So I have removed the ones related with 
strange table partitions or emulation code.

Here there are the commits:

Just hope that you, that deal with GRUB source code every day, can find 
what might be the faulty commit so that I can test that the special 
commit source code and reproduce it (or not to reproduce it).

Thank you for any idea!
