Bug#760148: grub-common: grub-mount hangs forever, trying to mount ext4 partition, causing 100% CPU load

[Johannes Rohr]

Hi Colin,

I get as far as this

root@:~# [ -e /mnt/sda9/etc/lsb-release ]
root@:~# [ -e /mnt/sda9/servers/exec ]
root@:~# [ -e /mnt/sda9/minix ]
root@:~# [ -e /mnt/sda9/boot/image_big ]
root@:~# [ -e /mnt/sda9/lib*/ld*.so*
root@:~# ls /mnt/sda9/lib*/ld*.so*


So, as soon as I run the ls command, the grub-mount process shoots up to 
99% CPU load and stays there until I kill it with SIGKILL

Cheers,

Johannes
