Turns out that right now, if you try to boot from LVM on ext3 with msdos
partmap, you get a core.img that is slightly too big to fit in the post-MBR
region. When you're booting from LVM, if it won't fit there you have no
other option, which makes this a big problem.
If you remove _chain from the list, it fits again. Since _chain can make the
difference between core.img fitting or not fitting, I think it should not be
included unless user requests it.
