The size correction in lmc happens at the end, so my best guess is that it's a qemu issue. Id put a bug in against that, and we should probably release note it as well.

Sure, if the bug below doesn't warrant removing it.

Yep. bzr pulled today. I'm on rev 165.
I've just gone back testing older images and hwpacks I've used in the past and am seeing the same issue there, so it does seem like its connected to the linaro-media-create scripts.
Here's the command I'm using, just as listed on the wiki: #linaro-media-create --image_file beagle_sd.img --image_size 4G --swap_file 200 --dev beagle --binary linaro-images/linaro-m-headless-tar-20101108-2.tar.gz --hwpack linaro-images/hwpack_linaro-omap3_20101109-1_armel_supported.tar.gz
Per our irc discussion, I tried reproducing this by omitting the "--image_size 4G" portion, and indeed it seems that worked and the resulting image boots fine. Similarly it works fine using 8G. Something just seems off using 4G.
Looking at linaro-media-create to see if I can narrow anything down.

I've updated the wiki guide to include the --hwpack option and avoid the problematic 4G image size (using 2G instead).
I'll go ahead and file the bug as well. I'm still suspicious that its really a linaro-media-create issue, as the qemu-maemo package is from 9/21 and I can't get image packages that had worked in the past to work now. So I believe the only thing that has changed is the linaro-media-create tools.
