[Xen-devel] pygrub patch to allow explicit offset to fs

[Kjetil Torgrim Homme <kjetil.homme@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently needed an old VM to work even though it was created on a SAN 
LUN with no partition table, just LVM straight onto the raw device.
pygrub didn't like this, so I added a simple hack to allow the user to 
override pygrub's probing when necessary.  please consider applying this 
patch.  btw, I think most LVM will have first filesystem at offset 196608.

    allow user to specify offset parameter which overrides partition 
table parsing
