I copied now my /boot to it
Seems like 1,9 MB is too big for the mailing list, message returned
So i just uploaded to rapidshare

http://rapidshare.com/files/128833892/ext4.img.bz2.html

But if you like i'll send it to you offlist

> grub-fstest ext4.img ls /
> grub-fstest ext4.img ls /boot
> grub-fstest ext4.img hex /boot/grub.cfg

just with ext4.img it didn't worked, it complained about not using an
absolute path
