--- Comment #4 from Richard Weinberger
Yes. Please help to provide the download url, I'll try debugging it after the Chinese New Year.
Meanwhile is it possible for you to try grub2-mount and reading the initrd file to see if we can reproduce ?
Assuming that /dev/sda2 is your root partition
linux # grub2-mount /dev/sda2 /mnt linux # time /mnt/@/boot/initrd-<version>-default >/dev/null
Okay, I noticed something odd. I've moved the disk image from one filesystem to another, this made the problem go away. Can it be that grub2/btrfs has problems with sparse files? I'm using a raw image, created by qemu-img -f raw. *confused*, //richard -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
