Package: seabios
Version: 1.7.3-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Seabios 1.7.3-1 fails to boot a Linux virtual machine stored in an LVM2 LV 
containing two partitions, the second of which is a bootable Linux partition.

Symptom is a message on the VM's console reading:

Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot failed: not a bootable disk

Downgrading Seabios to 1.7.2-3 causes it to be able to boot this Linux virtual 
machine once again.

On the other hand:

1. Seabios 1.7.3-1 can boot the same Linux VM from a virtual CD-ROM stored in 
an ISO image in the filesystem; and
2. Both versions of Seabios can boot a Microsoft Windows virtual machine stored 
in a different LVM2 LV.

Thanks for taking the time to look at this report.
