Bug Description
I'm trying to create a KVM VM with two disk images.
I'm using a cfg file which looks like this:
[DEFAULT]
arch = i386
part = /home/shermann/
user = shermann
[ubuntu]
mirror = ftp://mirror.
suite = karmic
flavour = server
addpkg = openssh-server, vim-nox
[kvm]
libvirt = qemu:///system
the ubuntu-karmic.part file looks like this:
root 5000
/boot 100
swap 1000
---
/var/log 2000
/home 1900
vmbuilder creates two diskimages, but doesn't boot properly.
Using only one simple disk image, where /boot is on the root fs it works.
Please see the attached screenshot

With vm-builder 0.11.3-0ubuntu1 change line 236 of
/usr/
so that the grub line reads what you need it to read eg change (hd0,0) to (hd0,1) in this case.
Then recreate your VM.
