That would be nice. As i know from the problems on i686 with the old
grub-gfx 0.97-7 version it only affects on FS with ext2/3/4, cause it
comes without the patch for bigger inode size on these FS. And all new
created extX-FS are created with this bigger inode size.
So would be nice if you could test it with ext-FS on /boot or /.
