find /boot/grub/stage1 hangs
Using 32 bit 6.7 CD to try to repair a 64 bit openSUSE 12.2 Grub Legacy boot
failure following WinXP installation. I deleted the symlink /boot and mounted
the /boot partition sda3 in its place, which presents a /boot/grub/device.map
containing only '(hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/blahblah', plus the expected Grub
files. The Intel Sandy Bridge system has only one HD and no floppy controller.
I've run into this before without finding a solution that is not HD invasive,
and asked about it on the help-grub mailing list @
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-grub/2013-04/msg00021.html and on the
dfsee mailing list @
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/dfsee-support/message/14644

Backing up /boot content, reformatting sda3, then restoring didn't solve the
issue here.
Any ideas how to figure this out very welcome.
