Yeah, the code to check for the boot flag sadly isn't optimal yet and fails as soon as the boot flag isn't on the first partition. We've something pending in: https://github.com/grml/grml2usb/commit/360632e096cbcd38d025d610cd64ce3fbb45c131 which might solve you issue, we'd appreciate any feedback. Thanks for reporting! regards, -mika-
