Reporter didn't reply to a retest request in a long time. No such problem here. Closing the bug.

Is still still a problem with current SVN?

Well; time has passed and I've spent the effort to cleanup the BTS from old grub-legacy bugs so we can use it for GRUB 2.

Sergey, we don't have time to debug/fix this ourselves.  If you can help us by providing a patch, that would be much appreciated.  Please send your followup here.

Sem, as I said in grub-devel, we don't want to use Savannah's bug tracker for GRUB 2. Discuss it in grub-devel, please.

I forgot to say what I meant 'does not work'.

When I typed chainloader +1 I saw:
error: invalid signature

Chainloader does not work for almost any partition I've got. It just works with fat (first) and ufs1 (second) partition on my first disk. It does not work for any partition on a second disk. (UFS2, UFS2, Linux).

Full my partitions tables:
First (primary) disk:
1) FAT (WinXP, bootable)
2) UFS1 (FreeBSD 4.x, bootable)
3) FAT
4) NTFS
Second (slave) disk:
1) UFS2 (FreeBSD-current, bootable)
2) UFS2 (FreeBSD 5.x, bootable)
3) UFS1 (DragonFly BSD, bootable)
4) extended:
    a) UFS1
    b) Linux Ext3, bootable

grub1 chainloader works with all partitions. grub2 chainloader only with 1) and 2).
