I have a hypothesis. Does last partition on any device span, s.t. it
leaves less than 64K after it until the end of device? If so then GRUB
sees the same metadata sector as the one at the end of device and as at
the end of partition. With 1.x metadata sector contains its own location
on the device. With 0.90 I can see no such field. Is there a way to
check for such condition with 0.90?
