The attached patch only allows selection of devices known by booty as
bootloader target disk, fixing the crash reported in bug 454135
The bigger question to me is what situations exist where there's a drive
in the diskset that's *not* in booty's drive list.
One word: iscsi (or you could have read the referenced ticket)
And I guess we will get cases in the future where some cool storage technology
gets added and booty does know anything about disks coming from that cool
storage technology. Even if it would be possible to install a bootloader on
that new technology, I still think getting a bug report that the disk using new
cool technology cannot be selected to install the bootloader to, is better then
a bug with a backtrace, which is what currently happens.
