[Bug 410886] Re: VMBuilder doesn't work with grub2

[Arnaud]

Using a fresh install of karmic (grub2 only on host)

I had to manually apply the patch made by Colin Watson (comment #4) and
it almost worked...

First question, why is this patch not yet included in an updated package
of vmbuilder ?

Second, I encountered the same problem as Iain Allan (comment #9), I
think I fixed it, patch below...

I can finally build karmic vm on karmic host, ... and start them!

patch against python-vm-builder 0.11.1-0ubuntu1
