Bug#399168: grub-disk: qemu can not boot from the grub-0.97-i486-pc.ext2fs image

[Dr. Markus Waldeck]

Package: grub-disk
Version: 0.97-19
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
I used qemu to check the functionality of the grub-0.97-i486-pc.ext2fs
image.

I always get following messages:

Boot from Floppy 0 failed
FATAL: Not a bootable disk

qemu has no problem to boot from grub-0.97-i486-pc.iso.
